A leading dog behaviourist has revealed dogs can tell when you’re having an affair - spelling bad news for pet owners who are unfaithful to their partner. 3.2million people acquired a pet in 2020, with more than 12 million dogs now in homes across the UK and IllicitEncounters.com, the dating site for marital affairs, estimates more than 30% of its 1m strong membership owns a dog.
In a recent poll of over 2,000 members, 60% revealed dog walks had replaced more traditional affair rendezvous as daters cut back on costs. A further 41% confessed to meeting their lovers in their own home, instead of a hotel to save money.
The change in dating behaviour means an increased exposure to more personal aspects of daters lives, including their dogs - and canine owners are now fearful of their pooch sniffing out their extra marital antics. The trend has prompted IllicitEncounters.com to partner with top dog behaviour expert, Anna Webb, to dig into the truth on dogs' extraordinary ability to sniff out cheating.
