Should I get a dog or a ferret?

Question

My mom is going to give me a pet in a month or so. I really want a ferret, but my family don't like them. They think ferrets look like rats. My family really wants a dog, but I don't want one. Which one should I get? DON'T SAY FERRETS STINK. I did my research on ferrets- a LOT of research.

Answer 1

They are both cool pets. Both have ups and downs. Ferrets love to hide things, dogs can destroy things.  It is completely up to you.  What kind of dog would you get?  Me personally, I think my next pet is going to be a skunk, yes I am serious.

Answer 2

You've done all your research, so I think you should be able to get the pet you really want. Where are you getting this ferret? If it's from a breeder, than your whole family should go when you pick one out. When they pet and play with all the other ferrets there, I'm sure they'll start to really like ferrets too!

Later on, they can get a dog too! Ferrets and dogs can get a long fine as long as the dog is nice and well-behaved and the ferret has access to it's cage when it need to hide.

Good luck!:)

Answer 3

a dog would be better if you don't want small things like your keys stolen and hidden on you
