DOG NEWS YOU CAN USE: According to a new survey by Homes.com, 52% of dog owners are looking for dog-friendly homes when searching for their next domicile. Of that number, 27% consider their dog’s needs as top priority. Homes.com surveyed almost 700 dog owners, highlighting how dogs factor into our


home lives, including where we live. 32% of renters and other non-homeowners ranked their dog’s needs as a top priority in choosing a residence. Here are some of our favorite things that make living with dogs even more cozy and fun.
