Yes, you could say we are ‘dog people’
• 56% said having a dog meant that they spent more time together
• Those gay/bi couples also see dog ownership as a greater commitment to their other half than setting up a joint bank account
• 21% of gay and bi couples were more likely to have a “pet-nup” in place versus just 12% of straight couples
Over a third of all respondents – gay or straight – said they would not date anyone who was not a self-confessed “dog person.” True dat. There were also a few downsides noted to having a dog:
• 17% of couples said they had less sex because their dog now shares the bed with them
• A third said they leave the house separately so there’s always someone home to take care of their pup
