Default favorite animals?

cats, by far. the four i've had have been the best thing that ever happened to me.

gorillas come next. (my cat, huey, has a lot of gorilla traits: hates to be ignored, doesn't know what to do with the attention, itchy as hell...)

dogs are next. two dogs, my sister-in-law's german shephard and a westie i found on the highway own top billing in the dog section of my heart (our neighbors' beagle, being a cat in a dog suit, gets her own catagory).

fried calamari is probably next on the list. hard to say.

Definitely has to be dogs, and more specifically 2 breeds - Doberman and Westie. Best animals in the world.

Rats are next (they are so friendly and sweet!)
Cats after that.

After that it'd have to be cows and pigs.

I like all animals. Personally, we have two horses, two dogs, two cats, and other assorted wildlife that drop by on occasion - particularly because my wife feeds them.

The coyotes do get run off the property when I see them. I keep a shotgun in the barn loaded with rock salt just for the occasion. Overall however, we have a pretty healthy live and let live attitude about all of God's critters.

Dobermans in my experience are the biggest wimps going. They don't know how to handle agressive small dogs and either run away or just look at them funny.

Westies are just little brutes really The 2 have such opposing personalities!

Some men....did i type that for all to see?? oops...of the furry/non-furry 4 legged type, would have to be dogs, Labs and Shepherds for me....Although I have had snakes, lizards, rats, trantula's, frogs, birds, ant farm and worm farm, hamsters, guinea pigs and cats, with kids, you get what they bring home cause they 'saved' them, it's been a zoo, literally, oh and rabbits too....
My fav are Labs and Shepherds.

Dogs - medium sized - curious - happy - loving

We're 2yrs into rehabilitating an older abused dog we got from the pound after we had to put a furry friend of 16yrs down.

He's coming along - lots of trust issues - we had to teach not only how to play but that playing was ok - how sad.

Its nice to give back to a creature thats had a troubled life - nice to know that the last half of his life will be spent in a warm loving home learning how to be a dog
Life is but a dream ....

We have two dogs, and I like them, but my favourite animal was always dolphin. I wsh I could see and touch one.
