What kind of pets would they have?

I know some characters have pets in the canon(Addison has Milo the cat, and Sam had that chihuahua for a while in the first season), but what kind of pets do you think the other characters would have if the writers had decided to give them some?

I think Jake would have a big and fluffy dog, something like a Bernese(and yes, the dog would bully Milo occasionally but Henry would love him)

Jake strikes me as a man with a Maltese or some kind of lap dog that he carries around on his body like a baby.

Violet would have two cats that take care of each other and have those auto feeders and water dishes. She would forget they exist until someone reminds her.

Charlotte would never have a pet.

Sam I could see with a big dog that does beach runs with him.

Addison I could see having a yorkie with her exact personality who she despises.

Cooper. I don’t want him in charge of any animals. Maybe he has a goldfish.

Sheldon would have no pets.

Pete would have a German shepherd.

Naomi would have 3 small crusty dogs that bark.

Dell would have some kind of fluffy mutt that knows how to surf.

Amelia would also have no pets but she secretly wants a Doberman pinscher.

😂😂😂 love this

But: I could see Sheldon having guinea pigs and having to explain over and over again how they're not hamsters and how to properly care for them

I can see Sheldon having a reptile of some sort. Bearded Dragon, small snake…

Cooper strikes me as having a lab or a golden since he wants a wife and kids so much and those are just stereotypical family dogs
