Both. But I don't have my shit together enough to care for another life form adequately. Their company would be nice, but I have strong reservations about following a dog and picking up their feces. In an ideal world, if I owned a dog it would remain outdoors and with its own dog house. Let it bury its poo and roam free in my large backyard (ideal of course, I can't even get a house in reality). Cats similarly poop all over a house until trained. Dealing with their hairballs and worms is also not something I look forward to. I think in their minds I would be their pet, a position I must accept after careful consideration. But in seriousness, I don't see why I can't pick both. If forced, depends on the dog breed. Golden retreiver wins over any cat and any cat over a pit bull or roweiler.
