Almost two thirds (64%) of UK dog owners believe their pet’s happiness is more important than their own, according to research by ManyPets.
Over half of owners (48%) admit they prioritise their pet’s needs over others in the household.
The survey of 2,000 dog owners also unveiled that two-thirds of households (66%) treat their pet to a dedicated bedtime routine, including washing and brushing their fur (40%), teeth-cleaning (26%), and playing them relaxing music (23%).
Furthermore, two-thirds of owners will spend up to £100 a month on pet grooming (61%), a projected total of £17.8 billion in 2025.
ManyPets Vet Dr Joanna Woodnutt BVM BVS MRCVS, said: “It’s brilliant to see how much the nation values their pets, and considers them part of the family. At ManyPets, we believe every pet deserves a little pampering now and then – it can be a great way to show your love and can even lift their mood.
“However you choose to pamper your pets, be sure to listen to them and look out for signs that they may not be enjoying themselves in order to ensure they feel relaxed, happy and comfortable at all times.”
