The Ultimate Question: Cats or Dogs?

I have a dog. Love him. But I have always been a car person as well. Don't currently have one. Made a change and bought a ferret. Which is like a cat. Or something. Not quite sure what to think of him. He's so random.

Well the votes at least tell me I'm not the only cat person so far. I assumed dogs on this for most people.

Dogs! Cats could careless if you exist.

Dogs just can't get into cats. I have two Rottweiler's best friends I've ever had besides my Military buddies.

Hands Down Dogs. I would rather leave my family in a deployment with a descent sized loyal dog to watch over them than a cat. not many people generate a fear at the sight of a cat. Dogs are loud, loyal, and territory. If a strange presence enters its known territory It is aware and either attacks or lets the Alpha (the owner) know of the intrusion. My wife and I are planing to get a dog. Plus Dogs are very Therapeutic. Soldiers and Vets with PTSD have been given or adopted dogs to help them cope. I have PTSD (and I am treated for it) and visiting my family on leave at times I wake up from nightmares to see the Family dog just sitting there with big black eyes whimpering out of concern. Petting her calmed me down every time. How many cats do that? Most of the time they come around for dinner and then they leave to go bat something fragile off a high shelf

CPT Zachary Brooks, there's a dog at this house!

Man's best friend. All dogs go to heaven, lady and the tramp, 101 dalmations, Old Yeller. Every one knows that dogs are better than cats.

Edited to include a picture of the late Gunnar.

There seems to be an overwhelming majority for dogs.

Got two of each. Ran out get some takeout today. Came back to a chewed up baby toy, chewed up pillow and trash removed from can. It wasn't a cat that did it.
