Well heres my 2....
We have Einstein the black labrador who at the beginning was a very difficult dog to have he was always naughty and virtually destroyed my house BUT with a lot of time and care he has turned into one very very loyal loving dog who is so well behaved now it's untrue lol...
Puppy pics..
Now he is a year old (last week actually

)

but is an absolute bastard to take a pic as he don't do staying still
My 4 year old cat Sooty who is a pure outdoor fighting cat who comes home once a week for something to eat and a sleep or pops home with the odd bird or frog or next doors fish
And i'm not sad to say i love them both dearly as well
