Because you were dying to see Olympians with their pets

Track and field standout Bernard Lagat is going to the Olympics AND he has a pug named Ms. Piggy. Olympic swimmer Natalie Coughlin has a Border Terrier that “exhibits the full range of emotions.” How do we know these things? Because petside.com has a new feature all about Olympic athletes and their pets. Needless to say, we’ll be rooting for Mr. Lagat in this year’s games. All of this further solidifies a point we’ve been trying to hammer home for years: Germans love David Hasselhoff.
