For me:

Monkeys and apes: they look too much like humans and expose many terrible traits of humans.
Greyhounds: their thin long body shape look weird to me.

I don't like dogs (except Huskies), because they often bark so sudden and loud. It seems they only have one volume setting for barking. I mean, they are cute and all, but one day they're gonna give me a heart attack.

Huskies are the most vocal dog i have ever owned. They don't bark a lot, but they will start to scream and talk and bark at you when they want something.

In my entire life I have never heard a husky bark, even though there were a few in the town I grew up. They just howled or yelped sometimes, but it's not irritating. It's like they are stealth dogs 🙂

My friend's wife taught their dog the cutest trick.

"[Dog], speak!" (WOOF)

"[Dog]....whisper!" (...woof..)
