Most dog owners in a new survey said they give their pet more kisses than they give their partner, People.com reports.

The poll by Riley’s Organics found that 52 percent of owners were handing out smooches more freely to their canine companions.

The same percentage also said they prefer sleeping in bed with their pooch as opposed to their partner.

Among those surveyed, well over 90 percent identified their dog as one of their best friends, People.com notes.
