The dog is derived from an ancient, extinct wolf, and the modern wolf is the dog's nearest living relative. The dog was the first species to be domesticated,... read more I strongly disagree, macaryI95. Dogs are friendly. Maybe not your dog, but mine are very friendly. If they aren't, you did not select the right dog for you. Sorry, but I agree to disagree. Dogs are the best and are nothing like cats.
Not only are they friendly, but they have also evolved beside us, rely on us, love us, and are loyal to us. It has been proven that they prefer us over their own species.
I don't know much about dolphins as I don't live in the sea, but what I can definitely say is that dogs are one of the best friends of man.
A dolphin is an aquatic mammal within the infraorder Cetacea.

I love dolphins, second after otters. They are brave, loyal, and especially friendly for wild animals.
They are the best as they share everything with us.
The cat (Felis catus) is a domestic species of small carnivorous mammal.It is the only domesticated species in the family Felidae and is often referred to as the domestic cat to distinguish it from the wild members of the family. A cat can either be a house cat, a farm cat or a feral cat; the latter... read more
I have a cat, and while she may act like a brat sometimes, it's all part of her personality. Most of the time, she just takes naps on or near me, and she is so sweet.
My cat is like a dog but better because I don't have to pick up his poop. So yeah, that's why I voted for the house cat.
Cats are more peaceful than dogs and do not need as much grooming as dogs!
The capybara is the largest rodent in the world. It is a member of the genus Hydrochoerus, of which the only other extant member is the lesser capybara. The friendliest animal in the world, they can chill with any other kind of animal and even humans.

The guinea pig, also called the cavy or domestic guinea pig, is a species of rodent belonging to the family Caviidae and the genus Cavia. I have guinea pigs, and I love them with all my heart. They do need a lot of attention, but they make great pets for kids and adults.

Manatees are basically living potatoes. They are so fat and friendly that they like to have their tummies rubbed. Manatees may look intimidating at first sight, but these gentle giants are very curious and will even make close contact with humans. They also like to do barrel rolls, which is very cute.
They are so friendly and cute, but a bit intimidating in real life.
They are the friendliest animals in the world. In the time of the pirates, they were thought to be mermaids.
The beluga whale or white whale is an Arctic and sub-Arctic cetacean. It is one of two members of the family Monodontidae, along with the narwhal, and the only member of the genus Delphinapterus. Beluga whales are my favorite animals of all time. For me, I just like their personality and how pretty they are because they are very white.
They are dolphins from Canada!

My brother walked up behind a baby elephant. It turned its head, and my brother stumbled away from it. The little elephant reached out its trunk, put it around his arm, and kept him from falling.
To this day, I love elephants. My brother, on the other hand, saw it as an attack, and he has hated them ever since. This was fifty years ago.
Elephants are friendly and can help us carry weight!
The ferret is the domesticated form of the European polecat, a mammal belonging to the same genus as the weasel, Mustela of the family Mustelidae.
I'm looking after one, and he's really friendly. He'd chatter away all day if he could.

Whereas every other big cat (lion, tiger, cougar, jaguar, etc.) would most likely think of humans as breakfast, cheetahs don't see humans as food. Ancient people used to keep tame cheetahs as hunting partners and pets.
Snakes are elongated, legless, carnivorous reptiles of the suborder Serpentes that can be distinguished from legless lizards by their lack of eyelids and external ears. Snakes are so cute!
