    I have a Rhodesian Ridgeback - perfect fit for us and love her to bits :smile:

    Also want to shout out the rats make awesome pets too - had a few previously and they are so full of personality!

    Ya know, I always thought English Bulldogs would be gross sounding, bad smelling and lazy, then once I got one, I realized that I was totally...right.

    BUT

    I also learned that they are HILARIOUS - seriously funnier than most of my friends. I am sure it isn't on purpose and just the nature and look of them - but then sometimes it makes me laugh so hard I wonder. They are also one of the most sweet natured creatures I have ever met. Way more loveable than I thought. Super friendly. My brother has a chihuahua and it is the bulldog's best friend. She actually plays with a wild rabbit that sometimes comes into our yard.

    So for me, bulldog might be the answer!

    Humans. As long as they're kept in a pit in the basement and lotion is applied regularly. :wink:

    Or a cat. My cat is pretty awesome too.

    It rubs the lotion on its skin. It does this whenever it is told. It rubs the lotion on its skin or else it gets the hose again. Yes, it will, Precious, won't it? It will get the hose! (even this dude has a dog!)

    Every Weinmaraner I've ever seen has been very high strung. Not a dog guy at (in general) all but I think greyhounds are awesome. Not cat compatible usually though.

    My college roommate was a toy poodle. Loved that dog. Now I have a cockapoo, he is the best buddy. I am his human. He sleeps beside me at night. I've got a 5month old lab. She is a handful but I know Peaches will be a fulfilling pet as she matures.

    Cats are ok if they stay outside. I've got 3 grown cats and three kittens at the door now. I've very allergic to them, so outside they stay. They keep the kids busy.

    I also love fish. So little maintenance So many pretty colors. I've got 5 bettas and 4 tanks of guppies. I've been selecting and breeding the guppies. They are starting to turn out like I've wanted.

    Can you tell I like critters? Animals lower stress & anxiety and never once has an animal judged me by my weight.

    If I could have only one though-my cockapoo. I can see the love in his brown eyes and its unconditional. With all the heartache in my life, my dog is my rock at the end of the day.
