On October 30, My Dog Votesâ„¢ announced the results of the first nationwide political survey of dog owners. See the whole press release here.

Interesting excerpt:

"The My Dog Votesâ„¢ Voter Opinion Survey pulsed the political opinions, levels of civic engagement, and probed voting trends of dog owners, who comprise nearly half of all U.S. households.

A key finding of the My Dog Votes™ Voter Opinion survey showed that a whopping 98.6% of the dog owners said a candidate’s position or track record on dog-related laws and policy would influence their vote in a local or state election. Dog ownership cuts across political, social and economic barriers."

Hello? Candidates? Are you listening?
