On Take Your Dog To Work Day, Businesses Go to the Dogs
BELLEVUE, Wash.--(Business Wire)--
InfoSpace, Inc.'s (NASDAQ: INSP) Dogpile.com, the search site that
combines the top results from the leading search engines, will
celebrate Pet Sitters International's Take Your Dog To Work Day(R) on
Friday, June 20, 2008, by recognizing dog-friendly companies and
offering tips for businesses on how to be dog-friendly. Dogpile will
also launch the new 'Arfie -- Your Desktop Pal' widget which will
allow employees to have a useful, virtual dog in the office every day.

Pet Sitters International launched Take Your Dog To Work Day in
1999 to celebrate the great companions dogs make and the benefits of
dogs in the workplace, including reduced stress among employees and
increased communication between colleagues. The following companies
are listed among the most pet-friendly in the country on
www.takeyourdog.com:

-- Google

-- Amazon

-- Banfield the Pet Hospital

-- Petsmart

-- AutoDesk

-- ValueOptions

-- The Nature Conservancy

-- Advent Software

-- Be Your Best

According to pet expert Arden Moore, having dogs in the office is
not always easy, but businesses that follow some simple guidelines can
become more pet-friendly. "Studies show that dogs improve company
morale and productivity. Absenteeism tends to be less when people can
bring their dogs to work," said Moore. "Allowing your workplace to go
to the dogs can be good for your bottom line -- if proper policies are
in place." Moore recommends the following:

-- Establish a doggy business plan. Clearly identify and
post the doggy do's and don'ts for your employees. For
example, adopt a "three strikes and you're out" policy
aimed at dogs who don't behave.

-- Provide a clean environment. Limit dogs' access to
certain common areas of your office to reduce allergic
reactions and prevent dogs from counter surfing and
stealing someone's lunch or raiding the garbage cans.

-- Embrace true dogma. Invite an animal behaviorist,
veterinarian or dog trainer to give a presentation on
canine manners, behavior and health issues to educate
all your employees.

However, there are situations where dogs in the office just aren't
practical. That's when the 'Arfie -- Your Desktop Pal' widget comes in
handy. By downloading the widget, employees can have the Dogpile
mascot Arfie on their computer desktop. Arfie can play fetch, walk
around the desktop, or go into his doghouse for a nap. Most
importantly, the widget includes an internet search bar, allowing
users to perform efficient Internet searches via Dogpile.com.

"Even if your furry friend can't come to the office, most people
will enjoy having Arfie, a fun and practical friend, on their desk,"
said Mark Whidby, director, search product management of InfoSpace,
Inc. "Arfie can fetch his ball for you, or fetch useful information
right from his doghouse on a user's desktop."
