    I've never gone for a walk alone in the dark and probably never will, but if I ever did I'd only have the choice of a dog, seeing as I don't own a cell. If I did have a cell though, I wouldn't choose between the two. I'd take both it and a dog.

    Same here. Whenever I walk Smokey people seem to want to avoid him.
    I guess he looks intimidating.He walks with tail up & curled over his back.
    If they only knew what a wuss he really is.

    I wouldn't go for a walk in the dark, but I voted dog and that'd be Lacey.

    Well, IF I ever went on a walk alone in the dark...I would definately take a dog (Shadow!! )

    edit: I just realized the question which you'd trust not, not take...I would definately trust the dog because they can hear or pick up on things waaay before I'd be able to. Also I know that if I'm in trouble Shadow (Jack too, probably) would do their best to protect me. And in that case (if I had a cell phone) I would take both

    edit again: okay..there are two different questions...I am not losing my mind!!!

    I walk down my road alone in the dark, few street lights but I live in a fairly rural area. Always have at least one dog with me. Maggie probably can't do much but she is going to probably hear something before I do. Guess I choose dog since I have yet to take the cell with me.

    Dog, definately. Ethan and Frisk especially, because they are both very protective of me. Skylar isn't protective of anything... when he's outside and sees a stranger or hears a strange voice, he trys to run toward it with his tail wagging!
    And if I had to choose between taking Ethan or Frisk, I'd take Ethan. I know Ethan will take action because he once bit a friend of my sister's (my sister's friend wasn't upset, he understood that he made the wrong movement and that it Ethan wasn't attacking him for no reason).

    I would rather have my dog becausehe barks at anyone who comes past my house and when we go for a walk he loves and protects me. I love my Shadow box ANd he loves me He will protect me in anything or from anyone he almost bit my cousin because we were play fighting in front of him. he is my little sweetheart and I love him.
