In celebration of Take Your Dog to Work Day on June 22, Petmate, maker of fun trusted, quality products that enhance the lives of pets and their families, announced the company’s search for its first ever CFO: chief four-legged officer!

Petmate is looking for that special canine—loyal, smart and enthusiastic—to help lead its team in the development of new toys and key products to enrich the special bond between pets and pet parents.

“We’ve always relied on consumer insights to develop the smart solutions and products that fulfill the many different needs of pet families,” said Chris Wilson, Petmate’s executive vice president of marketing and product development. “Now we’re putting a true top dog in charge.  The ideal candidate works well with others, is passionate about play, and enjoys a good belly rub or back scratch.”

The new CFO will receive $5,000 in take-home pay, and Petmate will donate an additional $5,000 to the CFO’s favorite animal rescue program. The “bonefits” package also includes $2,000 MSRP worth of pet products, featured placement on Petmate.com and more.

The new CFO will make his or her debut at Petmate headquarters in conjunction with National Dog Day, August 26.

Candidates can apply at petmatepets.com/cfo June 21-July 27. The application process includes a photo and an explanation of what makes your pet the best qualified. Videos are welcome.
