I love to hear my dad talk about the dog he had as a kid. They would follow him to the store and wait for him outside. No matter how long he took the dog would be there when he came out. Those memories are so precious to him. Did you have a favorite pet from your youth?

Awww, he sounds like he was such a sweet cat. Kinda like a mix between a dog and a cat. I hope I can get a Siamese one day but I just found out that my fiancee doesn't like them. :/ Oh well, I love him more than I love cats so I guess it'll be ok.

I guess my favorite pet would have to be "Tippy" a fox terrier I had growing up. I don't remember much about him. But, he is the reason I love animals so much.

Penny - The dog I had, as a hild. She died 8 years ago, and I still miss her.
I can't say a "favourite" of my pets, as I love and loved them all he same, but if we're talking about pets of our youth, that I can answewr, because there was only one, our dog Penny. We got her when I was only two, and she lived until I was 18.
