Oh yes, bigtime animal lover here. I cherish my critters - dog, cat and horses, as well as all my 'pasture and yard pets,' deer, elk, bunnies and chipmunks.
I absolutely prefer the critters to humans... except for a couple of significant exceptions, like my husband (and hubby says he's not so sure about that - he's pretty sure the dog comes first
)
I've never heard anything negative about it but then anyone who has ever known me wouldn't expect the humans to win that contest, lol.
