To find how many people who are 40 years old or younger preferred dogs, we look at the "Dogs" row under the "40 or Younger" column in the table.

According to the table:

  • Dogs (40 or Younger): 983

Therefore, the number of people who are 40 years old or younger and said they preferred dogs is 983.
