A new study has found people who share a bed with their dog wake up in a better mood 🛌

Researchers in Japan found people who slept with their dogs scored significantly better than non-dog owners, or those who banned them from the bedroom 🐕

However, the study found sharing a bed with your cat doesn't have any impact 😿

⚽️World Cup Fever is Here⚽️
The countdown is on, the mascots are limbering up. At The Pet Experience, we’re bringing a little World Cup madness to the toy aisle with balls, tug toys, mascots and enough squeakers to make the referees whistle pointless. Whether it’s a slobbery solo kickabout in the garden or a full-contact living room final, now’s the perfect time to get pets involved in the beautiful game.
