Animals (Harvest Moon: Island of Happiness)

Unlike the usual Harvest Moon games, you neither start with a dog or with a horse. They have to be obtained through events. The game introduces pet food, which can be stored in the silo in the Pet barn to feed your pets. Whether your pets will die without food is unknown. Just like any other Harvest Moon game though, you are offered the usual main animals for raising.

Accommodation
As per usual, Chickens in the chicken coop. Which you have to build.

Cows and Sheep in the barn. Which you will have to build.

And Pets (Horse, Dog) in the Pet Barn, which you start with.
