My question is whether TNG liked dogs. In "Aquiel," there was that one that went after Geordi (who didn't have a good track record with pets anyway). I wanted to see a lot more of Amanda Rogers' puppies in "True Q," but they weren't allowed to stick around. The Trois had a dog that got away and led to tragic circumstances. Oddly enough, Troi's son Ian also played with some dogs on the Enterprise before breaking Deanna's heart as well. Overall, it doesn't seem like TNG was head-over-heels for hounds. Send them all my way.
