[Mac Sirloin]

I'm interested in getting a pet soon, just something for when I'm on my own, and thought I'd do my research now.

My Preferences: Has to be a dog or cat because I'm a traditionalist, small dogs like Shih Tzus and most "Show dogs" (I have no idea what I'm talking about) are not to my preference and Poodles are a no-no because much as they're intelligent dogs, I've heard reports they can be a bit vicious and frankly it would shred what's left of my dignity to get one. Terriers of just about any kind are fine, but I'd prefer something that's small-medium sized, with shorter hair (seriously I can't even care for my own scalp what chance would a Komondor have?).

My goal is to get an English Bulldog. I'll try to adopt whatever I conclude to like, but if it comes to it I'll go to a breeder (NOT A PUPPY FARM).

As for Cats? One Simple rule: None of that flat-faced crap. I'm all for a Pug, but I'm not fond of cats like that. Something that is not in any way like a Siamese (whiny) would be great. I'm looking for something medium sized but I'd be willing to get a Maine Coon just to say "Why yes, my cat can open the door for me, what now, ♥♥♥♥♥?"

Help appreciated.

And the name is going to be TF2 related because a I'm a big fat NEEEERD.
