A wolf, because if man is in god's image. Then the only conclusion is the dog (aka the wolf) is his best friend. Also they were feared by us for so long, and If I were a faggot totalitarian god; I would see myself as one of them. Just to make human's lives miserable.

There's like 50 of them in revelations, but i think you mean the lamb of seven horns and seven eyes meant to represent jesus christ.
Lambs are a constant motif trough the entirety of the bibble not just revelations though, usually as a worthy sacrifice to god and a metaphore for mankind as a whole (god is our shepherd and all that).
So yeah if i had to bet Gods fursona would probably be a sheep

Jesus has been depicted by furries many times, a few species recur:

1) Sheep/ram/goat

I think this one makes a lot of sense, Jesus is compared to a lamb in the bible both directly and indirectly, for example:

John 1:29

The next day John saw Jesus coming toward him and said, “Look, the Lamb of God, who takes away the sin of the world!

Beyond that, the comparison to a lamb could also draw from the old testament, with the sacrifices detailed in Leviticus that included live animals such as sheep. Christians would tell you they don't obey it or any other old testament law because Jesus became the ultimate sacrifice to atone for the sins of this world, and any further sacrifices become superfluous. Other new testament lamb symbology include the involvement of shepherds in the gospel, and the frequent mentioning of lambs in the book of revelation, and the description of Jesus' apparition by John in said book:

Revelation 1:12-16

I turned around to see the voice that was speaking to me. And when I turned I saw seven golden lampstands, 13 and among the lampstands was someone like a son of man, dressed in a robe reaching down to his feet and with a golden sash around his chest. 14 The hair on his head was white like wool, as white as snow, and his eyes were like blazing fire. 15 His feet were like bronze glowing in a furnace, and his voice was like the sound of rushing waters. 16 In his right hand he held seven stars, and coming out of his mouth was a sharp, double-edged sword. His face was like the sun shining in all its brilliance.

2) Lion

Jesus is also compared to a lion directly in the bible, again in the book of revelation.

Revelation 5:5

Then one of the elders said to me, “Do not weep! See, the Lion of the tribe of Judah, the Root of David, has triumphed. He is able to open the scroll and its seven seals.”

It's worth noting that a lamb is mentioned in the verse directly after this.

In my opinion, Jesus being depicted as a lion in furry art has more to do with Christ as a king, lions symbolize royalty and appear frequently in royal heraldry in Europe, lions are also often seen to symbolize strength, and it's understandable that some Christians would prefer depicting Jesus as a strong king rather than just a sacrificial lamb. Furthermore, the common depiction of Jesus as a man with long hair is conducive to a lion with a long mane. I think leonine Jesus is more based off general animal symbology and visual resemblance than pure biblical scripture like caprine Jesus.
