Walking (with dogs)

I don't have a dog but when I go for a walk, dogs seem to come to me.

Maybe I'm a Dr Doolittle :)

Anyone else loves animals?

I love animals too! If I could rescue all the animals from my animal shelter I would😀 when my son was younger we had up to 14 different animals.🐕🐈🐎🐇🐔🐓🐹🐍🐢🐦🐠

Aww. I would quite easily rescue animals. If I had a house and a bit of land.

Hi, I love animals and do have a dog. My dog is not much of a dogs dog though if that makes sense...lol! She runs off to see their owners and their dogs run to me for a cuddle...lol! It's funny as I know all the dogs by name but don't know their owners names!

My dog is exactly the same. She's very interested in the owners. A quick sniff of the dog and then it's all about the owner. I'm convinced she's looking to trade me in for a new owner! Just kidding, we need each other and she would never find someone like me - I put up with her taking most of the sofa or the bed with just a few inches on the edge left for me. I often wonder why I put up with it, I wouldn't tolerate that inconsiderate behaviour from another person but she looks so content when she's stretched out that I don't want to disturb her!

You might be right about a trade.

Isn't that strange I was only commenting to my friend the other day next that I knew dogs names but not the owners. My last dog would say hallo to other dogs but wasn't really bothered but adored people kids especially.x

Most definitely, I prefer wild life to domesticated animals such as frogs, fish, birds etc :)

We used to have frogs and tadpoles.

Keeping them in a slimy bucket.

Then releasing in the pond.

I have always said that people who don't like animals have something lacking in them.....xx

we have 3 dogs and a cat. growing up we had bunnies, ginea pigs, goldfish, hamsters and 2 broiler chickens that fell from a lorry going to slaughter. loved them but sadly didn't live long. I too would have pigmy goats, Shetland ponies, geeses etc if I had land and the money for them all :) I also feed the wild birds every day x

I would definitely have some ex battery hens.

Let them stretch their wings, and peck around in the dirt.

The hat happens to me I seem to be able to put them in a trance. Only the other week an elderly lady just looked literally gobsmaked when. I said hello to her rescue dog and she didn't bark, she said she is so nervous she barks at everyone, she even let me give her head a massage. I could do anything with my friends dog and when they couldn't get him to go out when there were fireworks they used to have to ring me for me to pop up. Now if I could not have that effect on humans.

Would love another dog but with my husband's long treatment coming up I think it is a no no for the time being. Would love another rescue.🐕🐶🐩x

I love animals hence why I'm a veggie - can't bring myself to eat them! My dream is to retire to a nice little cottage in the Lake district with some land so I can have some geese, a goat, 2 rescue donkeys, a few cats and a dog - sigh x

Wild rabbits like carrots- obviously- but they don't like cabbage or lettuce. Not sure why.
