    Even tho I'm a "little dog person", I always wanted an Old English Sheepdog. I just love their goofy, lumbering, clumsy manner. I have the room (land wise), but wouldn't be able to keep one in the house, and all my poochies have always been house dogs.

    Anything farm animal. Welsh pony, a zebu, a cow, a donkey, a zedonk, a llama, chickens. But I'll never have enough money to buy a farm.

    An iguana!
    I believe I will have one someday. I will save my mum's sanity and wait until I move out first, though.

    I always wanted a horse but I won't have enough money to be able to board the horse somewhere. :/

    I also always wish I could have a snake. I love snakes and lizards. But my mom would never let me get one.

    Thank you so much for the siggy, Husky_mom!

    I wish I could have a horse and a dog. I can see it happening in the future. Especially because some of the boarding barns here are about half the cost of where I used to live.

    Goats. I want goats! Pygmy Goats in particular. I love goats!

    We plan to move farther out of town in the next five years.....I will have goats then!

    You don't have to live on a farm to have chickens! I don't live on a farm and have had chickens and ducks!

    MORE CATS! Not enough room though.

    Slightly OT, though this thread reminded me of it...MANY years ago, when my sister and I were pre-teen or in our early teen years, dad said one morning that he had a dream that my sister wanted a Siamese Duck!

    (no, Dad really didn't drink a lot at all! And there is no such thing...except as a restaurant dish!)

    When I was little, I wanted a fox. When asked for a second choice, I said I wanted a shark.

    I wish I could have a Maltese, or a Yorkie.... I've wanted a small dog for quite some time now! I'd also love a cat. But I just don't know how my girls would take to that... and I probably don't really want to find out.

    A horse. I have absolutely no place to keep one nor the time and money to feed and properly care for it. My mom said we could tie it in the backyard .

    Maybe someday though after I move out and everything. I've always wanted a horse.

    Well.. I've always said I wanted a dinosaur.. LOL I don't think that'll ever happen.

    I would love sheep for the dogs to herd, but there's just no space in the city. I've always wanted a horse too.. I may end up boarding one day though.. who knows

    Fish. They're beautiful and relaxing and I'd love to have a big fish tank (either salt or fresh water) but I'm so bad with fish. I've just never done well with them.

    More than anything I want chickens and my husband has promised to build me a chicken coop this winter (an advantage to not having snow in Florida!) so I can get some chicks in the spring!

    I want goats and I've been reading up on them like mad so I can hopefully get some in a couple years.
