Some highlights are listed with my comments italicized.
- 58% of pet owners visit their veterinarian more of ten then they visit their own physicians. Guilty as charged.
- 78% owners talk to their pets -- in a voice different than their normal voice, 62% celebrate the pet's birthday. Guilty as charged,
- 28% owners have toothbrush for their dog. Of course, how else can you clean her teeth (so you can kiss her/kissed by her)?
- 33% owners talk to their dogs via telephone or leave messages. I haven't left messages, but we do talk to TinTin on phone. TinTin does the same thing my grandma did when she was first introduced to the telephone -- turn her face towards the telephone to make eye contact. It is really funny.
- 58% of dog owners have taken a day off to care for a pet. Well, TinTin is still a puppy and so far hasn't gotten that sick yet.
