Black cats are my favorite animal!
I love chickens! They are fun to watch, especially if they are foraging in the garden, chasing after bugs, pecking the ground, and scratching in the dirt. I also love the fact that they lay eggs and you can have a fresh egg to eat. Their soft clucking noises are very soothing.
My 3-1/2 pound chihuahua! She’s a little diva who deserves all the attention she receives.
My favorite animal is a dachshound. My grand dog was a dachshound. Sure miss him. Thank you Cinnamon fir the awesome giveaways.😘
Lambs…so sweet! Remind me that I have the greatest Shepard, who takes care of me. Ps23
I love cats and kittens! I grew up with cats and that is why I love them so much!😊
I love whales, especially the blue whale.
My favorite pet has to be a dog! They are so lovable and just make a house a home!
My favorite animal has to be a dog. My family has had many dogs over the years and it just seems empty if we don’t have one around.
My favorites are cats. I have had lots of cats in the past and they are really cute and cuddly.
I love horses. I have always wanted a large draft hose, but sadly never had the place keep one.
I like lots of animals. Hard to pick a favorite but I will go with cats.
As the proud “owner” of a dozen cats of all sizes and colors, I’m obligated to say cats are my favorite pets.
Favorite pets are dogs.
I like all animals and have had several different ones throughout my life time, even a rat from school days that I babysat on school holidays. I now have cats and a guinea pig through my granddaughter. I have made many different animals throughout the years from tiny stocking stuffers to giant animal pillows. I have made several of the AG animals. I love making animals.
I love dogs, the bigger the better.
Under the Chinese calendar I was born under the sign of the dog. I’ve always loved dogs!
Cats 🐱!

Cats are great, but the kids here love any pet. Personally, I would love a grizzly bear which would be an amazing prop for photos. :)
I would love a petting zoo with all these adorable patterns…
I’m a cocker spaniel, golden retriever girl.
Bunnies! Followed by horses, hummingbirds, kittens, and puppies. We love living where animals of all kinds come through our back yard.
For a pet, I like dogs best!
I love dogs so does my Granddaughter.
Yorkie
I love dogs, but that chicken sure is cute!

Dogs, dogs and more dogs! Did I mention, dogs? :)

My favorite animal has always been the tiger. They’re so majestic, but just like kittens when they’re babies! Thank you for the chance to win! I’d love to make my granddaughter the pet bed for her doll’s pets.
Chickens are my favorite followed by dogs
Chickens are my favorite followed by dogs
A puppy, for sure!!
My favorites are Australian Cattle Dogs. They are so smart and affectionate. We’ve been owned by 6 of them over the past 37 years.
I like the chicken best, I’m all country and a little quirky! LOL
Cats are my favorite, but the pig is so cute.
This is a hard one to answer. I have both a dog (Westipoo) and a cat (Tortie). The cat thinks she is a dog and comes to the door to see who is visiting just like our dog does. They are both rescues. I can’t imagine not having an animal in the house. The kids are grown with kids of their own, all of whom visit regularly, but it sure would be lonely without a pet or two!
Chicken 🐔
Cat
I love dogs.. we have a beagle and a husky… I love for my dolls to have dogs too. thanks for the chance to win
Ilovemyfavorite animals is husky
Dogs, especially Boston Terrier and flat faced breeds.
I hate to be boring, but i love cute puppies. Dogs are my favorite animal – they love you unconditionally!
My favorite animal is a leopard, the majesty of their stride and coat is something beyond words. But I love cats for pets, male Siamese are prefect.
horses first and dogs and cats and ect. !! haha i like most all animals
I’ve had both dogs and cats, and I love them both!
My favorite pet is my Pomeranian, but I also have a Maine Coon cat and a domestic cat. I love all animals.
My favorite animal is the squid or the shark! I just love going to the beach and all things about the ocean!!
So hard to say. I love all animals. Over the years I have had 8 budgies, 2 cockatiels, too many different fish to mention, a rabbit , several cats ( have 2 right now ), 2 German shepherd crosses, 2 black labs and at present a VERY active German short haired pointer. Also used to look after the school guinea pig when I was a kid. So not really sure I could choose just one. Maybe a cougar .
I have all sorts of animals from an African Sulcata Tortoise to a turkey, kitties, a Belgian Malinois, and of course my potbelly and Juliana piggies. I think my favorites would be my tortoise and my piggies! They each have such personality, are friendly, loving and I never have to worry about allergies – because neither have fur (pigs have hair)!
My favorite pet is a dog. Right now we have a Blue Heeler. She is a super day!
My favorite pet is a rabbit. They’re quiet and not very messy. Soooo soft to stroke.
My favorite pet is a husky puppy!!
LIZARD
The pups would have my vote. Would love to make a border collie one day.
I prefer cats to dogs.
All of them are adorable, but kittens are always a personal favorite! We have 2 cats of our own, and foster kittens through the animal shelter, so of course our dolls need kittens in their lives too!!
I guess dogs but I love them all.
I love animals but am allergic to cats, so a dog would be my favorite! They have so much personality and we had labs and spaniels growing up. I would love to have a dog, but am unable to walk a dog now, so have no pets other than my wild birds that I feed.
My favorites are Golden Retrievers. I have two rescued ones…a white English cream one from California and a golden one from a meat market in China. Both make me laugh every day and are such good company!
I love doggies esp poodles. But a pig would be a cute pet.

I love cats!!!!
Oh, man. I love my husky, but my favourite pets are fancy rats. They’re smart, affectionate and so so SO cute!!!
We love miniature Australian shepherds.
My favorite animals have always been cats and horses.
My most favorite animal has always been a horse…my earliest pictures are of me up on a horse with my Dad standing beside it, holding me on while my mom took the pictures, then later there was more of me holding my baby sister in front of me and Dad standing holding the reins, once again while mom took the pictures. . When I was older I bought three for my children and myself, but when I remarried my husband sold them on us, because he considered them to be expensive pasture ornaments…The kids and I were devastated.. I like dogs too but I am allergic to cats. My youngest son used to raise Siberian Husky’s . I have made several pet beds for both dogs and cats and also a rabbit and food dishes for 18 in dolls for my granddaughters and little friends.
My favorite animal would be a chimpanzee—after seeing all the old Tarzan shows as a child, I wanted a real one, but had to settle for a Zippy plush one instead— and loved him dearly. But I have yet to see any 18" doll versions of one, just an AG GOTY Jess’ green spider type monkey, which is not not nearly as cute…
Dogs. All animals are wonderful, but as pets, you can’t get better than a loyal dog.
ALL THE ANIMALS ARE CUTE BUT i LOVE THE KITTENS!
I realy like the AG pig!
My favorite animal is a dog. We had a mixed breed, part golden retriever and part labardor.
We love animals. Both my daughters want to be vets! But horses are their first love!
I love chipmunks, though not for a pet! My daughter loves horses :)
I love cats.
My favorite animal is a cat, but I also love the little “class pet” hedgehog from MyLifeAs.
My favorite animal is an elephant. 🐘
My favourite animal are cats any size any breed :)
Since my roots are Peruvian, will have to say that the Llamas, and Alpacas are my favorite. The have such a nice wool !! But as a pet will love to have a Peruvian dog (has no hair, so no allergies are present). This dogs are used to help with reuma issues for they are also very warm.
I’m a cat person 😻♥️
I love pets for my dolls
They live cats and dogs and hang out together all the time!
Love all the different breeds of dogs although I love all animals.
I’m a dog person, love them!
I love all animals, but llamas are my favorite!
My favorite animal would be a cat at this stage of life. I have health issues and can not walk a dog at this time.
