Both.

Possibly slight preference for cats (to which I'm allergic), but it depends on my mood.

Mostly horses. :p

[robinbloke.livejournal.com]

Horses are variable tempered beasties.

I prefer ponies; welsh sections A's are wonderful tempered animals.

[silja.livejournal.com]

You didn;t have a "both cats and dogs" option, so I chose cats.

[kaberett.livejournal.com]

What's your view on Arabians, then? :p </smartarse>

I have quite a bit to do with ex-polo ponies, at the moment. I'm fond of Arabians, and the only Welsh cross I've ever met was a *fantastic* mare. Mongrels for preference, though.

[robinbloke.livejournal.com]

Both? Well you could have chosen a 'neither' preference as 'neither' is better? :)

[robinbloke.livejournal.com]

I've never been fortunate enough to ride an Arabian sadly, so couldn't pass comment on them.

Mongrels are generally much better temptered animals, yes, just like dogs :)

[kaberett.livejournal.com]

Aye - but unless I misremember (eminently possible), they're *all* called horses, even the ones under 14h2 :p

I *have* been [lucky/insane] enough to ride an Arabian... ...bareback. In a halter. With no helmet.

Erm. (:

Better than that, though, was the three-month old Arabian foal, who was terrified of *everything* and absolutely *adorable* and I'm in danger of gushing nauseatingly, so shall STFU now.

Vote Dog!!

Foals can be very very cute. They can also be vicious little sods; as my sisters one (I nicknamed 'fang') was.

You are talking about which make the best curry aren't you?

[whotheheckami.livejournal.com]

Welshies are fine until your grandfather obsesses about them and amasses a collection/herd/rabble of over 50!

[robinbloke.livejournal.com]

"Mystery meat"

[robinbloke.livejournal.com]

Oh dear; give them posh names and sell them as "Organically raised".

Hmmm. Sounds more like curries again though.

[whotheheckami.livejournal.com]

Yummmmmmm :@)

Unfortunately, his will specifically prohibited that course of action. The old bugger willed them to his youngest son whilst giving the farm to my Dad.

see, people don't understand. Penguins may be cute, from a distance, but the smell is pretty vile, and the sharp sharp beaks o'blood blister are not so much fun. They are very variable tempered beasties, although my chum Otto liked a cuddle, but look at the beak, and the calculating eye!

That's Otto? :) Awwww.

I know penguins stink, I just think they're highly amusing beasties!

Still jealous you get to feed them!

[nannyo.livejournal.com]

no, it isn't Otto, it's just an Otto photo substitute. Otto has a strange mishapen beak, but is still both cool and amusing. OK, you're right, I can't pretend I hate them... I do worry about them plotting to take over the world though.

Oh, one of the horses I learned to ride on was a half Arabian grey- utterly gorgeous! The softest ride I ever had (on a horse...).

[robinbloke.livejournal.com]

I've mostly ridden the nice sedate plodding kind of pony :)

[robinbloke.livejournal.com]

They will! And the world will be better for it; go penguins!

I ticked 'dogs' but it is a close call. I really like both
