Single women ditch men for dogs

The Daily Telegraph reports:

Australia's single women are turning their backs on men and opting for a much more loyal and reliable companion - a dog.

"In the past year 60 per cent of our new business has come from young single women," Sydney Petcare owner Richard Durant said.

"It's a growing trend I've noticed over the last few years. These are women who live busy lives.

"They want company when they get home. In many cases you'll find the dog sleeps in their bedroom, and even in bed with them."

True love can't be stopped.
