Almost seven in 10 dog owners care more about their pet’s health and happiness than their own.
And 43 per cent admitted they wouldn’t feed their pooch anything they wouldn’t eat themselves.
Plenty of cuddles (79 per cent), belly rubs (77 per cent) and healthy treats (75 per cent) are the top ways dog owners ensure the happiness of their furry companions.
When it comes to their own health, 73 per cent of doggy parents of the 2,000 dog owners polled prioritise their pooch’s exercise needs over their own.
It comes after Butternut Box, which commissioned the research, created a larger-than-life edible house for dogs made out of fresh food in Sherwood Pines to shine a light on the importance of feeding fresh.

00:00What I feed my dog is really important to me to make sure that he's healthy, he's got
00:22lots of energy.
00:23I know that if she's happy and healthy then it's one less thing for me to worry about.
00:27I'd like to say that I would know what my dog needs to stay healthy in their diet but
00:30in all honesty, there's a lot of information and it can get so confusing.
00:37At Butternut Box we're on a mission to deliver health and happiness to dogs everywhere by
00:41changing dog food for good.
00:43That's why our meals are made with fresh ingredients that you can see, say and eat yourself.
00:48Oh my god, the home of fresh, like stumbled across it on my walk this morning.
00:52So bright, so vibrant, there's just veg everywhere.
00:55My dog Ronnie just went running up to it, was just so excited to see it.
01:01Almost a third of dog parents don't know what needs to go into their dog's food from a nutrient
01:05perspective for them to live a healthy and happy life.
01:08So that's why we've created the home of fresh to showcase the fresh ingredients in our food
01:14and of course for dogs to have a good time.
