If You Do Any Of These Things Your Dog Is Living A Lavish Life
How do you think your dog would do out in the wild alone? A lot of “pet parents” treat their dogs to a very lavish life! 2 in 3 dog owners say their pet could “never survive in the wild” without them, according to a new survey. My dog gets to sleep on my bed. She jumps on the couch, eats steak, rides in the front, and lays wherever she wants!
The poll of 2-thousand dog owners finds that the average person thinks their dog could only take care of themselves for two days. But 31% give their dog less than one day. Part of the reason for that may be that 86% claim their dogs live a “life of luxury” compared to their ancestors.
