205 and I very much was scraping the bottom of the barrel at the end. Starting a bit generic and adding specificity helped a lot. The little meta-commentary was great. "you already said dogs. dogs are dogs." when I tried "golden retrievers" after already typing dogs.

Some animals replace vaguer definitions, but say "snake" is there forever, no cobra or viper for you. Strange.
