The first dog I had as a kid wasn't really loyal or unloyal, just.. dumb, to be honest. She'd just go up to anyone, and was really daft. I still loved her dearly, though. But I've also had dogs that were just the opposite.
Persians are gorgeous but too much maintenance for me. We are sort of a wash and wear set at my house: all siamese and oriental shorhairs. And my own hair is quite short, too.
Are the cats trained? It's more a love of life and of play, I think, that results in them coming to the door with a toy to throw.
I loved dogs when I was growing up but have not had the opportunity to own one since. Being a single working person does not lend itself to responsible dog ownership.
There are doggie day cares, I know, and dog walkers, but the poor guy would spend more time with the baby-sitter's than with me! If I have a dog, I really want to be around the dog a lot.
