I have always wanted to own a monkey. I never have though. My husband said they had one when he was growing up. He said it was quite nasty but friendly. I have always been a dog lover too though.

Hi manya_pearl. On my part, I will prefer dog as a pet. Actually we have three dogs at home and they are really of great help to us during at night. We feel safe because we know they are there to wake us whenever someone trespass our home. Dog are really a good pet and a man's best friend.

Hi manya, I had kept dog, cat, fish and bird as pet before. All of them were adorable respectively. The problem is that I have to take considerable time to take care of them frequently. When going on vacation for weeks, I have to get someone to take care of them. It’s really a great problem that sometime I could hardly find someone to help me, for everyone has his own personal affair to busy with So I think it’s nice for me to keep a pair of tortoises as my pet. Yeah, I love the mini size ones. They look really cute and easy to take care of as well. When I go on vacation I just have to leave them together with the small case in my neighbor’s house. Everyday a few vegetable leaves are just fine for them. Happy posting

I love all kinds of animals. I would chose a dog. They are loyal, love their owners unconditionally, have unique personalities (I've had 2 dogs of the same breed who couldn't of been more different), give great hugs, can accompany me on my daily runs and walks, are more than happy to sit on my lap or next to me on the couch and watch television. When I was a young girl basset hounds were my favourite dogs. There is just something so adorable about their long ears, sad expressions and short legs. I would also love to have my own horse one day as when I was a child I rode every week at a riding school. It's my dream to have a grey horse, they are so majestic and beautiful.

I would love to have a dolphin as a pet. Dolphins are intelligent animals. They are cute, unique (the only mammal with a lovable squeaking sound)and friendly. I love being in the water and play with them. I would build a special pool in my backyard for my dolphin.

hello manya_pearl, I would choose dog. It's man's best friend. You can totally depend on them. You can play with them and enjoy at the same time. They can guard the house night and day. That makes them so important to have in every house especially nowadays that there are lots of buglars around. Having a pet makes us happy and everyone in the family to enjoy. They are like a family. Makes you worry if they are not around.

I like cats. But if I want to have pets now, I will choose to have the fish. Because they are easier to handle. You don't really spend longer time on it. That means to say it's alright for you to have a travel. It doesn't matter that you don't feed them everyday. If I have a pet like cat, it is much more difficult to have a travel. I need someone to help me when I am away. I love China

i think parrots and Dogs are the two for me as i cannot afford a tiger or a lion coz they may eat me anyone in my house if i don't feed good food to it.

I have had at least three dogs. My first dog when I was little, one when I was married, and one when the boys were small. I also had a couple of cats, but not at the same time. I sort of like dogs more as to watch the house and keep it safe from burglars, although the dogs we had were more likely to open the door and let the burglers in if they could. So I guess I am a dog person. The trouble is that the last dog we had for 20 years we got so attached to her that she spoiled it for any other dog.
