We hypothesized that dog ownership would increase the long-term attractiveness of men, especially for cads, as this would signal nurturance and suggest tendencies for relationship commitment. Women read vignettes in an experiment with four conditions varying by male mat- ing strategy described (dad vs. cad) and dog ownership (yes vs. no mention). Dog ownership a…

Design/methodology/approach A questionnaire in the local language, using…
