Everyone feels different about it, it depends really. My mum likes cats as pets but not dogs but likes dogs as an animal. I have both cat and dog, love a cats independance but nice to have a dog as it depends on you.
Our dog loves attention, he always wants something to do. I can understand how it can be annoying if you want to be left alone though but dogs are cool. |

 OOOOH deep thinking there Jizz. Maybe you're right: a need for company & to receive unconditional affection? A need to control?But maybe, alternatively, a need to give love & affection to someone vulnerable. Or purely the generosity of heart to give a home to the homeless.

I always keep my dog under contrrol when I have visitors but if you can't tolerate the fact that she is freindly and will want to say hello then don't come, if you really dislike dogs that much I would prefer you not to come.

I don't think this is necessarily true, although I understand where you are coming from. Those people who seem to 'collect' animals certainly do seem to have something 'lacking' somewhere! I have always had pets though, and don't have anything lacking in my life ... having said that I don't go around collecting every stray dog, cat or rabbit that looks at me with it's sad eyes ....

I wonder how on earth you have doggie loving friends
WOOF WOOF i Think most dogs are nicer than some of the humans I know they are loyal loving and dont answer back and even like those of us who dont like them - maybe there is a lesson there |

I love my dog to bits and she is a big part of our family everybody loves her as she is friendly, I dread the day when we wont have her as she is nearly 13. we did have a problem with her bouncing up and down as a puppy but with proper training" but I would never allow her on furniture or upstairs. We used to laugh when our boys were little as my husband was top dog then me my eldest then it was a squabble between my youngest and Molly who came next
Who ever said cats are clean yuk I recently went into a restaurant where they had a cat which walked over the tables, we walked out. I had a bad case of cat flea bites from a neighbour's cat who used to come into my Mother's garden and they are supposed to pounce on any warm blooded animal or human who passes yuk. Then I had a shop were a ferile cat would come being an animal lover though cats have never come high in my list I felt sorry for this moth eaten thing and put out a saucer of milk each day. Big mistake as this cat was sick in the middle of my shop with mouse parts even brought a live one in yuk yuk yuk then one day I heard this loud scratching noise and a sound like a something hissing and a loud meowing when I went to look this cat was dragging a live R A T into my shop, That wsa the last straw Cats being clean do me a favour they are dirty things |

If a dog jumps up at me, i find the best way to deal with it is to bring the knee up sharply into its chest.
. . . . And for the pathetic 'My dog won't hurt you' from the dog owner, something like 'Maybe, but have you considered I might hurt your dog....' |

Oh dear, I have a dog now, haha, well if he jumps at people he's only saying hello  Well if you will go walking in well known dog walking places where they are allowed off the lead then what do you expect, go somewhere where dogs aren't allowed!!! |

I love lassie tv series but in reality I'm a bit scared of dogs.
When I was a kid, a very small fat dog got me cornered and barking at me. I just froze in terror. Didn't help that 2 window cleaners were pissing themselves laughing at my predicament. Oh the shame! |

i agree with that sorry no offence anyone but what other reason can be to sleep with pets ( if you have partner would you?!?)and allow licking them infront of your friends or even strangers. i dont have any pets but i can tolerate their presence. |
