Play with Puppies

People are divided into two groups, cat people and dog people, it is said. If you love dogs, you can turn that passion into money if you know where to search. Yappy, a website, was paying someone $24,000 a year to serve as its Chief Puppy Officer.

The job's specifics are rather simple to handle. Job duties include providing a solid and caring start in life so that guide dog puppies, who will be trained by the organization to assist sight-impaired people, can grow on to become great aids to those in need. The Chief Puppy Officer is responsible for keeping the pups occupied and safe from nine to five every day because the workplace permits employees to bring their pets to work.

The position was provided by Mutts Canine Cantina, a restaurant in Texas that also offers a dog park where patrons' canines may hang out while they eat. It was less demanding but no less enjoyable. They were paying a "puptern" a respectable $100 per hour to do nothing except pet the dogs in the dog park.
