54 per cent
Love Across the Species

95 per cent
Poop ‘n’ Scoop
Although 95 per cent of dog owners say they always scoop after their dog poops, 93 per cent of people who don’t own a dog say they have seen pet owners not picking up.
80 per cent
Love Me, Love My Dog
Dog owners are clear: 80 per cent say they would not date or marry a person who did not like their dog.
