ok dog groomers and/or ppl that own intact long-haired dogs… I need some guidance. TMI for the rest of you, sorry.

how am I supposed to keep my dog from getting mats in the fur around his balls. I can’t comb that area bc when he stands up everything is way too overlapping and I can’t get a brush or even clippers in, and he won’t lay flat on his back while I groom him he’s way too wiggly. and obviously the skin there is super sensitive. I’ve had to trim a few mats out already and it’s SO nerve-wracking, and now he’s got more I have to deal with. how the hell do ppl deal with this.

I feel like some people putting Phineas MidstPodcast into the "nervous golden retriever from the shelter" box did significant damage to the way he's seen and thought of and talked about in portions of the fandom.

"people shouldnt keep cold weather dogs in hot climates" dude thats so cool and wise of you!! Now what do people do with their cold weather dogs in their hot climates? Whats the next best move, jackass?

These two are literally best friends.

They have sleepovers and they were one of the first pairs to bond with each other once they both got to Spider society.

They told me themselves 🤷🏾‍♀️😭 Truth‼️

sold

a pair of xolo dogs with a marbled rim.

I struggled to get the rim marbled without getting any black underglaze on the dogs. I had to cover it in sticky notes lmao. I really love the effect though, totally worth it.

How do the zois keep cool in a place as hot as Australia? Shady areas? Swimming? Or do you not live as close to the equator as where I am?

I’m in north eastern Ohio, so we def don’t deal with the extreme heat of Australia 😂 yet anyway!

There are plenty of borzoi in Australia tho! Just like any breed, they acclimate to the temperature around them. They’re not as an extremely coated breed as the spitzes, and will grow more or less coat based on environment as well.

And this is why we do not shave double-coated dogs 🫠

I'm glad Rei can be bullied into liking dogs because I literally have a white round fluffy dog lmao

He's a goofball who likes get into people's spaces and lick them so Rei would have no choice but to tolerate him

Rei wouldn't be able to wear any of his long black coats around him though because my dog has an issue with tall men in long black coats and will bark his head off at them. So Dawnbreaker wouldn't even be able to catch a break if he got isekai'd into my world :')

I don't like shaming people for their takes on werewolves but I clearly remember Dogblud drawing a few POC werewolves who had afro hair only on their heads?? As in all the wolf's fur is straight as hell but they have a big ass afro?? And I was like. Girl no that is SO white and also uncreative. You can make them curly like a poodle!! You can make them have corded fur like a Puli to simulate dreads!! So her being arrogant at actual POC drawing POC werewolves is. Bruh.

I only ever saw one black werewolf OC she had, and yeah, I don't even remember her name because she did not leave an impression (which that alone is impressive because it's difficult to get me not go 👀👀👀👀 at a black OC ) but I guess that's the exact issue. Dog just changed her hair and lips from her base werewolf design, which was eeeehhhh not the best.

She was weird about how her werewolves looked and never bothered to add any other distinguishing features outside of like, hair or some vague face variations. All the fur types and body types were the same, and there was very little variety. Personal gripe, but I HATE THE WAY SHE DRAWS TITS AHHHHHH girlie never seen black titties her entire life and it shows hhhhhh.

She never wanted to experiment because Sandra was peak design for her, and she only really drew weird variations of Sandra's base form + features. I'm not shitting on Sandra's design, but it was THE ONLY design she had. It's easy to tell looking through her art where she's comfortable and where she's not, and variation in the body shapes and coat texture and all of that is just where she's not great at it or too lazy to commit to more than "aha obviously black features on the black werewolf" like girl come on gimmie something more.
