I somewhat agree. My favorite pet would be a parakeet. I used to have a bunch and they were all trained since I had them since they were born. They would let me grab them and pet them unlike other birds who would be frightened with the sight of a hand. I said I somewhat agree because dogs and parakeets are tied. I also love dogs. They are really loyal and fun to play with especially if it's a puppy. I would have to agree with you when you say that dogs are the only living thing that can be trusted.

Yes, I would say my favorite animal would be a dog. I have a small dog I named Sherlock. He is such a joy in my life. He understands me, and I know that sounds corny, but it is true. I love dogs, and if I could, I would have more than one. Maybe some day when I get a house with an actual yard I will be able to.

I must say that my little dog is a very loyal friend indeed. She is one of my very best friends, that is for sure. Always up for a walk, an adventure, a nap and/or play. My dog has always been there for me. She eats and sleeps with me. It is great when you live by yourself. A true faithful companion. I can not even imagine, no matter how hard that I try, what life would be like without her. I do have one other very best friend however but are of the human kind.

I currently have two dogs at this time. I used to have a cat but it ran away when we moved to a new house. The dogs that I have now are really like friends. They both have different personalities and I guess maturity really does come with age even for animals. The younger one is really loud and often has a need for obvious admiration/attention. The older one is more wise but very jealous. Its okay if I play with the younger one but if the younger one gets the initiative to run to me, the older one would bark and fend him off. The older one also doesnt like it if the younger one comes near whenever Im playing with him. The younger one on the other hand, makes a ruckus whenever we let the older one loose. Anyway, they've learned to cohabit somehow and I try to give them equal time and admiration. Oh, and by the way, my favorite animal is, ironically, a cat.

Cats every time because I have been bitten 3 times by different dogs and I don't understand them. I've never been bitten by a cat because I know how they work. I don't know when a dog is going to lash out and I don't understand why they do. I have an affinity with cats where I understand them and they understand me. My best friend is Jesus though.

I'm a cat person, I have a dog, but he's a pity rescue and I don't plan on replacing him when he goes. But I can't live without cats

I am a cat person, but probably my best friends are people and not 4-legged ones.

hi lifeafterdeath I love dogs as they are such giving pets asking only to be fed and loved too. I also love cats for their personalities.Yes we c an trust out dogs as they do bond with us, and will do about anything you ask. Cats own us and its intriguing to own a cat.They too know when you are feeling bad or ill and will try to cheer you up.

Dogs aren't my favorite but I don't mind a good dog. I have had several good dogs. I don't like the little yipers at all. A medium sized dog like a blue heeler is an excellent companion. I had a cocker spaniel for a companion that was born on the same day as I do and lived until we were thirteen. I had a blue heeler that was actually my husband's dog. He was a wonderful dog. I just refuse to have a dog in an apartment so we don't have one.

I love all kind of animals, but dogs are my favorites. I dreamt to have a dog when I was a child, but my parents didn't allowed me to keep a dog inside the apartment where we lived. As soon as I finished my studies and I were on my own, I brought a dog into my life. Now I can't imagine life without dogs. They are really wonderfull. Yet, you can't compare human friends with four legged friends. I love dogs, but even if my dog is my best four legged friend, I also have human best friends.
