Mint Bridging's office pet, Luna, is the four legged friend of Managing Director, Andrew Lazare. Even though Lua is still a puppy, she's incredibly well behaved and a holistic addition to the Mint team with her calm demeanour, yet extremely alert personality.
"Having Luna in the office has been a great addition to employee morale since many of the Mint team are pet lovers," says Debra Lazare, Marketing at Mint Bridging. "Eight of them have dogs that sometimes come in when there's a dog care emergency. They really appreciate her pottering around between desks and chairs during the daytime, not disturbing their work but available (at a moment's notice) for an emergency, stress relief hug. These subconscious, affectionate acts are a tremendous attribute for employees under time constraints when deadlines are critical, as she naturally calms everyone down simply by being herself - especially since she's not a fidgety pup.
Employees get to blow off steam, press their reset button and this is when Luna can bark at birds and buses. In the afternoons, back in the office, she's watching, napping and more than happy to receive belly rubs during meetings.
Since everyone's so used to Luna being around, her absence does stand out when she's taking the day off from work. She doesn't get a salary yet does receive treats as compensation.
She's a really kind soul and we love her coming into Mint."
