What kind of relationship do you keep with your animal?  

It has become fashionable to raise pets at home. Right now, you can see there are many pet dogs running in the streets or in the squares following their masters. And most of them are so lovely and beautiful that they attract lots of people's attention. Some of them even wear clothes and are washed very clean. Some people who own pet dogs or pet cats raise the animals in the family not only because they are lovely but also because some of them regard them as a member of their own families. For me, although i like them very much but i am a little afraid of their dirtiness. So i don't ususally touch them. What do you think? And what kind of relationship do you keep with your animals?
