Srila Prabhupada Purport
“Due to their affection for their cats and dogs, they have to take the same bodily forms in the next life unless they clearly increase their affection and love for The Supreme Personality of Godhead. Unless we increase our faith in The Supreme Lord, we shall be attracted to many other things. That is the cause of our material bondage.”

Siddha-svarūpa: It’s often seen that an owner of a dog looks just like that particular dog. They look very much alike, and they have similar personalities.
Prabhupāda: Yes. That’s a fact because the subtle body is doggish and he is going to be a dog next life. Tad-bhāva-bhāvitaḥ. Because he is always thinking of his dog, always, therefore he is going to be a dog.
Bali-mardana: By association.
Prabhupāda: Yes. Saṅgāt sañjayate kāmaḥ. The desire becomes according to association.
