Are New Jersey Dogs The Most Spoiled In America?
If you live in New Jersey, you know how much we love our pets, but are we among the states that spoil our dogs the most?
If we had to guess, we'd say that the Garden State must be at the top of this list. It's hard to imagine a state that loves dogs more than we do.
New Jersey Has A Love Affair With Our Dogs
All it takes is a visit to one of our amazing dog parks, doggie beaches, or dog-friendly events to know that those pups have complete control of our hearts, and for many our lives.
So, how much do we spoil those dogs that mean so much to us? The folks at Forbes Advisor ranked each state for how much it spoils its dogs, and New Jersey's spot on the list might surprise you.

Here Is The New Jersey Dog Data
We certainly wish we were even higher on the list, but when you hear some of the New Jersey data, it will warm your heart.
For example, nearly 50% of dog owners in the Garden State spend more money on the health and grooming of their dogs than they do on their health and grooming.
And how about this? Nearly two in five New Jersey dog owners throw birthday parties for their little friends, and that is adorable.
So, we are proud of the New Jersey ranking in this category. There's nothing like the love we have for our dogs.
