help work permit

I am currently processing my work permit in Hangzhou to get working Z type. I am in Hong kong at the moment since my entry permit expired. However i would like to go to PRC to see my dog (since i have been living and working there for 7 years in a different job). Can i apply for a tourist L type? or will this affect my work permit and work Z type process... I just want to stay in PRC for 30 days and then when my papers are ready; i will go back to canada to apply for my work Z type.
