Hey, everybody! It's been pretty much forever and a day since I posted a show off thread, and I've recently(-ish) adopted four total cutie-pies, so I wanted to share them all with you, and give credit to the awesome members who bred them! Better late than never, right? So without further ado, here they are!
Edit: Fixed the imgur links. Sorry about that, I'm new to imgur!
First up is Marian, bred by smonikkims ! Marian is a big, lovable goofball who is very, very fond of brushing; she'll even knock the brush out of the carrying case first thing after I open the game, before she eats and everything, the silly goose. As you can see from one of the pics above, she's a bit clumsy, which I've found is typical of my sheepie mixes. She spends almost as much time flopped on the ground as running around. XD Her color combination and spots are so much fun. Thank you for this wonderful girl, smonikkims !
Next is Tate, also from smonikkims ! Tate is another laid-back personality on my crew, who is really relaxing and fun to play with. I'm not sure if she also has a sheepie personality, but she flops on the ground about as much as Marian does, so maybe? I just love her dane face and adorable, floppy ears (they're especially cute when she's playing with the tug toy, but I can never seem to capture the effect in a picture...but I will persevere and keep trying )! I also love how she's basically a ninja in the garden part of the back yard scene, ha ha. Thank you for Tate, smonikkims !
My third baby from smonikkims is Pets! Pets is silly, and more high-energy than her two canine sisters. She pulls some of the best faces, as you can see above. Like every dog I've ever owned in Petz, she has no idea what to do with the water dishes, but she loves to play with them anyway! She also sleepwalks. A lot. The first time I ever played with her, she sleepwalked across the room three different times! She's definitely unique among all the petz I've owned in that way. I have such a soft spot for giant chi faces, so seeing her always brightens my day. Thank you for Pets, smonikkims !
Last but not least is Orchid, bred by Thor ! For anyone who's curious, Orchid is a Honker, from Carolyn's breed file. I had honestly forgotten quite how cute these little guys were until I took Orchid out to play for the first time. Look at that face! How can it be resisted? (Answer: It can't.) She's cute when she eats, she's cute when she plays, she's even cute when she's angry! It also turns out that she's pretty good at catching mice. The first time it happened, I thought it was a fluke (the appearance of Honkerz doesn't exactly scream "fearsome hunter," right?), but nope, she went on to catch several of them and balance on one poor mouse's head, to boot. She's the only cat-based member of my P4 crew right now, so she has an extra-special place in my heart; plus, she's a classic purple Honker, which has always been one of my favorite kinds! Such a huggable little gal. Thank you for Orchid, Thor !
I'd say "now for some group shots," but the only ones I really have are of Marian and Tate. Pets and Orchid haven't asked to come out with anyone else very often; Orchid came out once with Pets, but then totally ignored her, which didn't make for the best candid shot, LOL. Maybe Orchid and Pets have secretly peeked out at the interactions between Marian and Tate and decided that the whole "friendship" thing is too confusing for them...
Marian and Tate have a really strange relationship. Almost without fail, if one of them is out playing, the other will ask to come out, too. But they don't seem to be friends, exactly. If they do face-to-face play, they always glare and nip at each other, but otherwise they appear to...tolerate each other, I guess? Most of the time they have a habit of running around and bowling each other over, as seen in two of the pics above (Marian actually sent Tate flying in the second one; I don't know if I should be concerned about this behavior XD). Theirs is a weird, semi-peaceful coexistence. I've decided to just accept it. *shrug*
Thank you again for letting me adopt these four lovely ladies, smonikkims and Thor !
