Overview: When Bess' boss, Vince, institutes ""bring your dog to work day"", Bess freaks out because she doesn't have a dog, so she asks Annie for one. Annie's dog at first seems too small, but Vince thinks it's perfect. Unfortunately, the dog is cast on Frasier and Bess has to take a new dog to work. He messes the entire office sniffing butts and other private parts. Bess gives up on the idea of bringing a dog to work, and just as she is ready to prove herself worthy to Vince she discovers that they've run out of business. Meanwhile, Nora reprehends Jake for dating one of her students. She dumps him and now Jake has Nora escort him home after dental surgery. Nora quickly sees in a sedated Jake a fun opportunity to tape everything he says and use it to make fun of him later. But what she didn't expect was Jake confessing that he feels lonely and wants to raise a family.
