Google CEO Sundar Pichai delighted his followers by sharing two adorable snapshots of his furry companion, affectionately referring to him as his "best work partner".
Jeffree, his pet dog and a certified "doogler", is a regular visitor at the Google headquarters and occasionally steals the spotlight on Pichai's social media feeds.
Jeffree turned seven last December.

In November, Sundar Pichai had shared a photo of Jeffree sitting on a pavement along with other pooches. “Jeffree and friends,” the Indian-origin business leader had said in the caption.
On National Dog Day in 2022, Pichai shared photos of pet dogs of a bunch of Google employees, saying that seeing these pets, or “dooglers”, was one of the highlights of returning to office after the pandemic.

Pichai, 51, last week completed 20 years at Google. In an Instagram post, he gave a glimpse of his journey over the past two decades
“April 26, 2004 was my first day at Google. A lot has changed since then - technology, the number of people who use our products… my hair. What hasn’t changed - the thrill I get from working at this amazing company. 20 years in, I’m still feeling lucky,” Pichai wrote.
Other tech billionaires who are dog lovers are Elon Musk, whose Shiba Inu who is named Floki, even occupied the CEO's chair for a photo-op, and Amazon founder Jeff Bezos who shares adorable moments with his dog Luna.
In 2018, Bezos had posted a photo of walking a robot dog called “SpotMini” at an event. The four-legged robot was made by Boston Dynamics, a US-based robotics company.
