Well, Sebek's cool. Djehuty loves His chemistry labs. But, Bast's cool, and Aset and Yinepu and Wesir and Heru and Ra and Set and Nebet-Het and ... What the hell, I love Them all!
Sebek, Aset and Djehuty all have a special place in my heart though. Seshat too. Yes, I love all the Names. They just -- rock. Yeah. Dua Netjer! Argent

Anubis is often shown as a jackal, or a human with the head of a jackal (a black dog like animal). However, Set is also shown as a dog type animal/ a human with the head of a dog like animal. I think he's more often shown in the color red however.
Horus is shown as a hawk, but so is Ra, and many other sun gods. |

Anubis is the most well known canine deity, although Input, Set, and Wepwawet are also represented in similar forms.
Similarly, Horus is the main falcon deity, but is accompanies by the likes of Dunanwi, Khety-irty, Khenty-khety, Montu, Nemty, Re, Sokar, and Sopdu. Hope that was useful. ![]()

Those I am most closely associated with and who have special places in my hearts are Isis, Osiris, Anubis and Ma'at.
