How can override a field default value with default_get in odoo9?

I want to override the default value for a field with the default_get API function in odoo9.

I have this in my code:

@api.model
def default_get(self, fields_list):
    res = super(hr_attendance, self).default_get(fields_list)                
    res.update({
                'animal': 'dog'
               })       
    return res

When I create a new register, this error appears in the odoo log:

2016-09-02 11:33:36,680 27542 ERROR mydb openerp.http: Exception during JSON request handling.

    return self._call_kw(model, method, args, kwargs)
  File "/etc/odoo/server/addons/web/controllers/main.py", line 880, in _call_kw
    return getattr(request.registry.get(model), method)(request.cr, request.uid, *args, **kwargs)

    return old_api(self, *args, **kwargs)

    result = method(recs, *args, **kwargs)
  File "/etc/odoo/server/addons_extra/hr_attendance_extend/hr_attendance.py", line 79, in default_get
    res.update({
AttributeError: 'tuple' object has no attribute 'update'

What I am doing wrong?

Edit: I had another variable with the same name which provoqued conflict. Renaming the variable, everything works perfect.

update is a method of dictionary data-type. And you are trying to use it with tuple data-type. That's reason you got error.

Try with following code:

@api.model
def default_get(self, fields):
    res = super(hr_attendance, self).default_get(fields)
    res['animal'] = 'dog'
    return res
