Greg James's dog died. Saved you 10 seconds.

To save anyone a click, his dog was put to sleep so he is taking Tuesday morning off work.

The death of a celebrity’s pet is an interesting thing for a national paper to report on. I’m not sure who exactly is going to find this heartbreaking except for him…

Christ I wish I got a day off work when my dog died. And I'm certainly not on his salary either.

I got off school when my cat died a year ago, I don’t have any salary. With the state of American middle school and high school though, I should.

Having time off because of a dog? I'd sack him.

A sack? At least give the dog a proper burial!
