If M.Earthians could own pets what would they be?Would they look like their pets?Would they sound like them?What do you think?

Forget Strider. What sort of pets would
Gollum have? Pit bulls to protect the
precious or pet goldfish for when times
get...(well).

Oh, no Tuor of Gondolin haven't you heard that pets and owners tend to look similar to each other after a while? I think that Gollum would have had a racoon. Going all over the place, searching through other people's pertenences and no one really likes raccoons, right? Plus, they are both grey if I'm not mistaken.

Raccoon's are black masked,and footed but I guess they are grey as well..I think Sam would have had a dog,you know all that loyalty.

I don't know much about dogs but I agree that Sam would have a very loyal dog. I thought about a German Shepherd but those can be quite fierece at times... although Sam too, so maybe it would be a good match. Does anyone know a race of dogs as loyal but a little less fierece?

I was thinking, what kind of animal would Gandalf have? perhaps an eagle, or a hawk... keen eyed, quick and strong. Or a monkey? good for lerarning things

I think maybe a bassett hound for Sam a little simple,but smart and loyal as well.As for Gandalf how bout an Owl? Or Pippin with a mischevious Ferret Ha.

A newt seems fitting of Gollum. All slimy... though he might try and it eat.

You missed the idea of my topic.you are to tell what animal they would have as a companion,not what animal they would represent.Good idea,Maybe a new thread?

Well, in picking what animal they would have as a pet it would be impossible (in my opinion) to not pick one that represents them. Since people usually pick pets that corrispond to their personality.

Pets and owners tend to look similar? Then Gollum should have a frog.

P.S. Valier, you should probably edit your first post and introduce the idea of the thread, because not everyone is familiar with your thread in Novices&Newcomers. Also, a proper description would probably lure more people to participate and it's a pity because I think this a funny thread...

What about Ents? I think that they would have birds or squirrels for sure! Can you imagine Treebeard with a few of these running throughout his branches!
