Vancouver pampers its pets – especially its canine companions – more than any other city in Canada, according to a new sales analysis by Amazon.ca.
The company ranked cities by looking at how many pet accessories, grooming products, toys and treats residents purchased in the last year.
Only cities with more than 100,000 residents were included, and the number of products bought was then divided by the number of total residents.
Vancouver came out top overall, but also in the dog and small animal categories, which included products for everything from guinea pigs to hamsters.
Other British Columbian cities topping the category list included Burnaby, where residents bought the most products for cats.
Meanwhile, Winnipeggers bought the most products for fish and aquatic animals, and Torontonians purchased the most products for reptiles and birds.
