WeLoveAnyCar.com dog survey found dogs are key to dog owners choosing their next car. Dealers who can tick the top ten ways to attract dog owning car buyers should sell more cars, it is believed.
As previously pointed out, over 20% of car owners own dogs. Today’s car market can be rough and dealers should take the lead and lay out the welcome mat for the family dog.

Some dealers are catching on and an article in Automotive New’s features dealers (in the USA) who saw passing the ‘sniff’ test can win business.
