Yes, but I'm more of a cat person. I have had both dogs and cats as pets, and loved all of them.

There's nothing in the world I like - other than dogs. My favourites are working cocker spaniels (see avatar).

I like dogs just fine, but I'm not high-energy or chipper enough for them much of the time. I'm fortunate that my service dog is pretty laid-back, or I might not be able to manage getting him enough exercise and stimulation, if he needed much more than he does. It wouldn't be fair to a more "typical" dog for me to have it as a pet if I couldn't provide that for it. But I love my dog very much, and he indicates that he loves me too.

I'm more of a cat person. Dogs are known to have irritating traits like throwing themselves against the fence barking loudly as you walk by their garden, when you're least expecting it, and it almost makes you s**t your pants.

I'm not keen on the hyper sorts or the yappy sorts or the ones that aren't that smarr. I like bigger dogs, like Huskies, Alsatians and even Labradors.

Lets see..

I have a shared drive way, when I leave the house I get barked at by 4 different dogs

When I study during the day the dogs constantly are barking

When I go up the road I get barked at by 2 more dogs

When I try to pat the dog at work it growls at me

No, not really at the moment

I prefer cats.
I've had some bad experiences with dogs, mostly brought about by dog owners who clearly dgaf what their animals do.
Not to mention their incessant barking and unpleasant dog smell, no matter how clean their owners insist they are.

No.

Mum's dog barks at me all the time and mum feels sorry for the dog instead of me.

Idiots let their dogs off at the park and they chase me.

Dogs think it's a good idea to jump on people to show affection. Even to sniff crotches. Gross.

Usually I like cats but my cat decided to wake me up at 1am, 3 am and 6am this morning so I'm not much of a pet lover right now.

I like dogs & cats but I prefer dogs. Dogs are more easily trainable than cats. I don't like it when dogs bark a lot but dogs can be trained not to if the owner is willing to put in the effort.

Yes. In fact, I will try and take pics of the family dog and post them here on Wrong Planet.

I love dogs very much. They are one of my 3 favorite animals (along with turtles and wolves).

^ It's that simple.

My favorite breeds include collie, border collie, bearded collie, old English sheepdog, labrador, dalmatian, sheltie, and Aussie shepherd.

No.

I used to panic and melt down whenever I saw one. Now I’m good as long as they don’t get too hyper and try to put their paws on me or lick me. I prefer cats because they tend to ignore me.

I loke dogs, in fact I just got a puppy, but I can't actually have her in my apartment yet, and she needs to be trained as a service dog.

It really depends on your experience with dogs. If your a dog owner you get unconditional love, if your not a dog owner dogs can get annoying or even tramatising
