Love vs. beast
dot-matrix:
Pets are adopted by humans. They can live to be anyway form 15 to 20 years. They give love and ask nothing in return but a sweet voice and the love you give. They depend 100% for their friend to take care of them. Anyone, who would give away a pet for a human who doesn't like them needs to really take a good look at that person.
Now personally I don't see why it would have to be one or the other unless the partner is allergic to animals in which case I would move on from the relationship because the animals are an intrigral part of my life and part of my sense of well being.
Tell us what you think.

I would never give up any of my pets (3 dogs/2 cats) for anyone. They are like my family members and they keep me happy, healthy and sane! Most of my friends and both of the men I was married to (at different times of course!) liked dogs and cats, so I've never had an issue of having to choose between my animals and a person.

My dogs and I are a package deal. Some would not consider it an actual deal. LOL.
I had a boyfriend once (when I had only 4 dogs) who kept telling me to get rid of 2 of my dogs. He said no one needs more than 2 dogs. LOL. He must've been nuts to think I'd do what he said. Wonder what he'd say about me having 9 now?
I don't really trust anyone who doesn't like dogs. That is probably irrational, but I still don't . Maybe I just don't like them because they don't like dogs. A lot of men don't like cats -- to the point of being mean to them. That kind of person is REALLY off my list.
No. I wouldn't choose a man over any of my dogs.
Dobie1018:
Good for you Shasta! I feel the same way about my animals. Dogs give us so much unconditional love and affection and don't expect much in return other than shelter, food & water. They don't care what we look like or sound like. They just love us no matter what and are ALWAYS there for us, aren't they? Dogs are the best!
ZK:
Sorry but love wins for me cause I am allergic to anything with fur. So my search is for a partner who keeps pet fish or labradoodle (cause they don't have fur) ;)
