This is very interesting, after seeing your video on YouTube I had to check this out, because I am a dog and snake owner. What pets we prefer does seem to reflect on the kind of people we are. Dog people make very loyal and trustworthy friends, just as dogs are loyal and trustworthy pets. Cat people on the other hand I’ve noticed are more judgemental, and much pickier about who they make friends with. They are also more outgoing and have more people friends.
Thanks for commenting and watching the video. The article leaves me very conflicted because I maintain a dog, several snakes and several birds.
