Dogs.

Explanation:

Personally, I believe that they are both extraordinary companions but dogs however, are just that little bit better. I have 2 cats and one dog, don't get me wrong...I love all my pets but here are the great things about having a dog as a companion:

- They provide unconditional love.

- Great pet, especially for those who live alone.

- You can take them on walks/runs which will keep you fit.

- Dogs understand our emotions, therefore, they will never fail to be a comfort to you when you are feeling particularly down!

- In addition to my third point, they are generally more active and full of life in comparison to cats.

- They are loyal and once they have built their trust with you/the owner of them, they will never fail to be a protection to you.

- Due to them being such loving and active animals, I feel as though they can improve not only our physical health but our mental health too...it's as though they make us feel better about ourselves.

I hope this was a valid enough reason to my opinion on why dogs are better companions. (PS I still love cats just as much!!)
