Minerva and Athena! ...Yes, we name out dogs after mythology. Before these two, we had a black lab named Zeus. And he was indeed epic.

At least there isn't Cerberus :)

Oooh, but that would be such a sweet name for a dog >D And it'll be the name of a small yapper type dog.

BEWARE THE MIGHTY CERBERUS. He leaves "presents" in your shoes.

Rofl, that would be great. And what about Argos?

God, that's one hell of a retarded mental image there. Is that what I get for posting the turtle-cat?

Small dogs remind me of cats, thus, I prefer small dogs





lol

[Zokita]

I prefer small dogs, since they're cute, portable, and can't knock me over.

Who gets knocked over by their dog?

Dogs win. Cats are borderline feral, stupid, poison blades with fur.

Dogs are much more aggresive and violent, at least towards humans.

I would argue cats are, they just don't put people in the hospital when they attack.

I've never been barked at and tackled by a cat before. But that's just me, being a cat lover and all.

[RobbieMegaRotten]

I've never been barked at and tackled by a dog either.

But cats do hospitalize more people than dogs. When a dog's claws punture the skin there is a 15% chance of a serious infection. When a cat's claws puncture the skin there is a 90% chance of a serious infection. And which animal is more likely to draw blood when they scratch you?

[moomoo]

And cats are more likely to scratch you in teh first place. Dogs generally love humans, cats not quite so much. I still prefer them though.

[RobbieMegaRotten]

Dogs are also smarter than cats.

Now, I could get into those nifty scientific studies that look at the size and shape of an animal's brain to determine how smart the animal is, those studies that concluded that dolphins are one of the smartest animals and that dogs are smarter than cats, but I won't.

I will say this; The biggest argument by people that think cats are smart is that cats are more independent. I have a better word for this; feral. Dogs are easier to teach than cats, that is why dogs obey better. Think about it, if someone has trouble learning we don't call them independent, we call them retarded. Dogs are smarter than cats.

[moomoo]

Unless cats are actually very smart and they just choose not to obey.

[RobbieMegaRotten]

But they're not. When you tell a trained dog to sit and he doesn't he's stupid. When you tell a trained cat to sit and he doesn't he's independent?

Cats are borderline feral animals.
