Breed Selector

If you haven't noticed... Drew and I are big animal lovers. I can't wait to get a dog and I am really looking forward to adopting a dog in the future (as soon as we get a yard) so I was doing some fun research tonight on differing dog breeds. Which brought me to the Animal Planet website. Amazing site if you need to find the perfect dog or cat, or any pet really, for you. You'll find helpful information. Go to the Dog/Cat Breed Selector to start a series of questions to find out the qualities you look for in a breed and the survey will match you with the perfect breed.

And the perfect cat for me is.....
An Ocicat- Ocicats may look wild, but they are actually affectionate, curious, and playful, and possess a very strong devotion to their human companions. Highly intelligent, Ocicats quickly learn to respond to their names and can be taught a variety of tricks, including coming on command. Begging for food is another trick that Ocicats master with very little prompting. They tend to bond with only one person and prefer that person's company to all others. They do get along well with other animals and people, however, and appreciate an animal companion to keep them company if left alone for any length of time.

Like their Abyssinian ancestors, Ocicats love to perform daring tap dances on top of your bookcases for your amusement. They are an active breed and require a good deal of space and plenty of toys and diversions to keep them occupied. Like their Siamese ancestors, Ocicats are vocal, but not annoyingly so. They want to tell you about their day when you come home at night, but they won't bore you with every detail. Also, their voices lack the Siamese rasp that some people find annoying.

Or
Turkish Van- While you might be drawn to the Van for its fascination with water, you?ll fall in love with the breed for its other qualities. Vans are energetic, agile, and intelligent. They are extremely healthy and ?get along with people swimmingly,? notes one Van owner. You may need a few months of working out to keep up with them, however; Vans are famous for their ?action-packed? temperament. They are talkative, demanding of attention, and show great gusto at dinnertime. Breeders also say that Vans are known for their attachment to their human companions, and sometimes that makes transferring a Van from one household to another difficult. They tend to pick out one or two people in the household?usually the ones that deal with them initially?and bond with them forever.

And the perfect dog for me is...
A Collie - The collie is gentle and devoted, a mild-mannered friend to all. It is a dog with a working heritage, and it needs daily mental and physical exercise or it can become frustrated. It is sensitive, intelligent and willing to please, although it is sometimes a bit stubborn. It can nip at heels in play. Some may bark a lot.
