Improve Your Health and Sex Appeal: Get a Dog!
You’ve probably heard that a dog is good for your health; both mentally and physically! From giving us a reason to exercise every day (which also lowers your blood pressure and cholesterol), to helping relieve stress and boost our mood, dogs make a real impact on our overall well-being each and every day.
But now, there just might be another reason to get a dog … improving your sex appeal!
Yes, all you single people out there, a dog can be an effective “social tool” in attracting the attention of a potential companion!
In a recent study, 1,210 single pet-owners registered on Match.com (61% women and 39% men) were polled to see how pets influence their dating habits and preferences. The result? Thirty-five percent of women and twenty-six percent of men said they were more attracted to someone if they owned a pet; and women were even LESS likely to to date someone who simply didn’t like pets!
Now, before you rush out and get that K9 ball of fur, be forewarned that not all pets are created equal! This study also revealed that bigger just might be better when it comes to men’s preferences in the romantic influence of a pet. About twenty-eight percent of the men in the study admitted that if their date’s pet could fit into her purse … that would be a major turn-off!
So while a dog might not be able to make up for a lousy personality, lack of social skills or knock-you-out halitosis, the results do seem to indicate that having a canine friend may help improve your dating chances.

If I had read this a few years ago … hahahaha
Joking aside, there are people who adopt just to be seen and flirt, but who suffers in this story are the dogs that end up being used only as a bait.
Let these people at least have the good sense to care for their dogs as best they can.
