Here's another reason to love living in Colorado: Coloradans made it to the top of another list, this one about the likelihood that we'd adopt a dog. No bones about it, Colorado and dogs go paw in hand.

It goes without saying, but we'll say it, anyway: Dogs are the best. They're fun, they're energetic, they're loyal, and provide unconditional love. There are religions that believe that dogs will come back in there next life as a human; maybe that's humans and dogs get along so well.

The betting site, Bookies.com, dived into data about each state's desire to adopt a dog, actually going through with it, and divided that into how many people live in each state. I don't know what Bookies.com plans to do with the data, but I wouldn't bet against them finding a way to make a buck.
