"  Are you looking for love? If you don&amp;#039;t have a pet, now could be the time to get one. According to new research, your dog may help you find your next love interest. Ooh, our ears have just pricked up. THE CUTEST CELEBRITY PETS PetsPyjamas.com carried out a survey and found that one in five dog owners have met a date while walking their pooch. Right, where&amp;#039;s the dog lead?! What else did the survey reveal? 11% of dog owners have met a partner just by talking about their pet.  The nation loves pets so much that nearly one third of dog owners would take their pet on a date with them. This doesn&amp;#039;t work if your pet is over-protective though. Imagine your hot new man leaning in for a kiss and your nippy Jack Russell snapping at him. So not hot. A GIFT GUIDE FOR PETS We learned the effect of pets from Gok Wan&amp;#039;s Style Secrets. He often lends his gorgeous dog, Dolly, to women on his show to help boost their confidence and find a man.  It&amp;#039;s not just dogs that help owners find romance. 7.5% of cat owners have met a date while at the vet. Meow! PetsPyjamas&amp;#039; co-founder Denise Elphick said: &amp;#039;It&amp;#039;s no surprise that such a huge percentage of the British public have found love through their pets, as they allow you to be even more social and active within your neighbourhood.&amp;#039;  Our advice? Hmm, we&amp;#039;ll keep our wellies on for the dog walk and stick to our usual routine \u2013 but we&amp;#039;ll definitely keep some lippie in our pockets.  THE BEST SEX TOYS FOR COUPLES  Keep an eye on PetsPyjamas.com. In April they&amp;#039;re launching PetWalk events. These events aim to connect you with like-minded pet owners in your area and keep you fit at the same time. Great idea. Did you meet your man through your pet?
