lep.co.uk – A university study has proved that dog owners really do look like their pets.
But the similarity between man and his best friend ends there, as the research by Bath Spa University concludes owners and their dogs do not share personality traits.
A group of 70 people who do not own a dog were asked to match photos of 41 dog owners to three possible breeds – Labrador, poodle or Staffordshire bull terrier.
Researchers Charis Hunter and Dr Lance Workman from the university found that owners were correctly matched to their breed of dog above the level of chance.
