COME RAIN OR SHINE
Dog lovers without a pooch of their own can join BorrowMyDoggy to find an eager and motivated cardio companion.
The average British dog owner takes their pooch on 433 walks a year, covering a distance of 548 miles, the equivalent of walking from Land’s End to John O’ Groats annually.
MAN’S BEST SPEND
As an alternative to kennels, a BorrowMyDoggy membership for owners is only £44.99/year and includes insurance and a 24/7 Vet Line and dogs can enjoy unlimited love, walkies and happy holidays.
British dog owners expect to spend over £400 a year on dog accessories, food, treats, grooming, holidays, insurance, vets bills and kennels - equating to a total of £3.5 billion pounds a year.
IT’S ME OR THE DOG Nearly one in five female dog owners would stop dating someone if they didn’t like their dog.
FANCY A CHIN WAG? More than half of British dog owners confess to telling ‘tails’ to their canine companion when alone.
