Best thing God/Random Fluctuations in Space Time have created.

Unlike cats, dogs are loyal. They're far more social and a good bit more intelligent. And unlike cats, their loyality doesn't swing along with a can opener.

Studies have shown that having a pet (especially a dog) lowers blood pressure, reduces stress and generally improves your well being. In the case of dogs, their absolute loyalty is a fresh break from dealing with humans, where behaviour seems to be dictated around how to attain things. perhaps it's because I live where I do, but I more and more get the feeling that humans only treat other humans nicely when they think they can get a direct material benefit from it. Seems many humans are quite ready to steal your last loaf of bread if you ain't looking. (LOL, neighbor just did that while I was taking a piss, and now he refuses to admit that he dinnae, despite all of a sudden not being hungry anymore).

Anyway. Dogs are great. Love them. Will post a pic of my Max as soon as I get tech Support to supply me with my password for my home page (lost it in system crash three days ago).

Cat people are ok. Dog people rule.

I agree,

Heard it best summed up by a comedian on TV:

"The reason I like dogs more than cats is if I suddenly shrank to three inches tall, my dog would still obey me.  My cat would kill and eat me."

3 cats 2 dogs...

I admit that if one of the cats happened to wander in front of a passing steamroller, I'd recover.

What about a cat/dog person?

I got 2 cats and 2 dogs.

Actually, dogs are using their owners.
Cats do too, but they are more independent and have personality.

I like the independent nature and cleanliness of cats, and really dislike the smell in the house from dogs.

But overall,..I like em both,..I am just lazy and hate bathing dogs.

we had some good cats when we lived on the farm.  but the sign of a good cat is you never have to feed it.  if they aren't killing enough pests to only require food as a treat they are worthless.  IMO no cat that recognises( or can be called with) the sound of an electric can opener is worth a damn.  cats are only loyal to whoever holds the can opener today.

dogs will sacrifice their own welfare to do whats in the best interest of their family.  cats are unaware of the word 'sacrifice'.

Who says you can't train cats? I trained my wife's cats to run for their lives AND to swim in less than a minute.

I have 2 Great Danes, they're more like urban livestock. One thing that cats can never do is protect your property, one of my dogs, Astro, has caught 2 car burglers in the past 5 years. She's earned her keep IMO ;)

I love my dog, except in the mornings at 6 am, when I have to take him out to -20°C temp. Lots of joy, he's always willing to play and having fun. Throw him a ball and he'll bring it back to you over and over again. Even thought I don't like those morning outdoor activities, I've never regret for taking him. Dogs are just great. :)
