To be truthful, I don't love either. But I like my German shepherd...Molly's a real sweetheart, plus she looks like she can take somebody's arm off if it suits her. I like having a man-eating dog in appearance only: her means of killing would probably be licking someone to death. The only way she'd attack you at this point would be to tie a opossum around your neck.
Cats...I can take or leave. But I would only have one at a time. The thing my brother's married to is a cat person, and because of this and her being to cheap to spay, they have around a half-dozen running around at this stage.
