I always thought Patronuses represented someone important to you. Like how Harry's was a stag for his dad and Tonks's changed to a wolf after she fell in love with Lupin and Snape's was a doe to represent Lily.

[badass_tiger]

I don't think that's so. Like Ron's is a terrier because of his loyalty, right? And Ginny had a horse (iirc?) for her fierceness. I think those Patronuses are just the ones that were highlighted because they were important to their character, but there are lots of others that are unexplained. I can't see that as being untrue, not everyone has somebody very important to them.

But if that were true, I'd be without a Patronus :( I don't have anyone very important to me, I'm not even close to my parents!

Ron's is a terrier because it is a yappy little animal that everyone likes to kick and is just annoying and useless. It is very apt to the character.

[badass_tiger]

0/10 for effort, maybe try again tomorrow.

Everyone likes to kick terriers? Huh. I've never kicked one, myself.

[(Anonymous)]

Dude, you haven't lived. You should do it tomorrow. The rush is unreal.

[(Anonymous)]

...especially when their owner finds you.

[(Anonymous)]

Good point. Dye your hair red before you do it, if they think you're a ginger they'll be afraid to touch you in case your skin taints their soul like a real ginger's does.

[(Anonymous)]

I think it's more that your Patronus is whatever makes you feel either protected or able to protect yourself. For some people that's a (potential) lover or a family member, for others it's a representation of something in you that keeps you going.

[sarillia]

I like this explanation.

I just always felt like there was more to it than "this represents you". I thought the feeling protected angle was what separated it from your animagus form.
