Hello Tumblr, say hi to Nugget 👋 

I don't really plan on drawing them that frequently, let alone draw them in those outfits I gave them but I just felt like updating their ref (cause it's been 3 years bruh)

If you could only get dogs from one group, which one would it be?

Herding 😅 Beaucerons, Collies, Mals, GSDs, Mudis, PyrSheps, ACDs, BCs, Picards, Shelties, etc... so much to love ❤️

fwiw, speaking as someone who is not in Mudis, who missed your critical OP, and who then had to backtrack to figure out what pissed off your anon so bad and check? and, on top of that, someone who is not young, and who knows exactly what toxic shit can swirl in dog breed communities?

you're totally being reasonable there. everything in my networks I've heard about Mudis--not just from you or even from the Internet--tells me I would want to be even more careful selecting a dog based on temperament than I am with my ACDs. I don't know that conformation would be my first choice for testing a more solid temperament, but the reasons you list for looking for it are sound and it's hard to think of another activity in which dogs are asked to tolerate a stranger touching them without having to actively enjoy it (e.g. therapy work). Your anon there is actually making the breed community look way the fuck worse than your initial OP comment.

It always looks worse to badmouth someone who is making reasonable comments about problems in their home breed than it does to be the person making those critical comments in the first place. and I say this coming out of cattle dogs, which have their own nasty temperament issues (including fearfulness combined with herder mouthy == badbad) that made me very careful about picking a breeder for my dog. especially for a breed that is currently in a bit of a sport-person spotlight (like PyrSheps, koolies, kelpies, ACDs, etc before them), it's extremely important to talk about known issues in breed temperament so that people are well informed ahead of time. you want people to pick the dogs knowing full well what they're getting in for and what to look out for. transparency is a sign of a good breed community, and argument about how to achieve given goals is normal and reasonable.

anyway, good luck with Lichen! little bitey pointy dogs are great fun, and I hope you're continuing to enjoy the crap out of yours.

these are great points!! i really appreciate you sharing your perspective :) the other thing is like, if they disagreed with me they could've just started a conversation with me and i would've been happy to hear them out if they wanted to share their opinions, instead of being rude.

they're right that i am young and relatively inexperienced with the breed. but i'm also extremely dedicated to learning and i'm active in the community. if i'm wrong about things, i need to know so that i can learn and grow!

but yeah, thank you!! i love Lichen so much and she's made me want to be involved in mudis forever. <3

Everyone thinks their breed is the most special and every person is so right

#that being said pyrsheps are the most special #they make my brain fuzzy in the best way

PyrShep!

well i mean i think it’s pretty clear what happened here. the wave of romanticism washed over central europe and with it came the pure breeding movement, making once-ambivalent people look at their dogs and go “huh. i guess we should… organize these somehow?”

and to be fair they did a pretty decent job, except by the end they were stuck with a reasonably sized pool of misfits. dogs that just didn’t fit the preconceived ideas, too small to be picards or briards, to smooth to be mudis or croatians, too fluffy for beaucerons, you get the picture. they didn’t particularly look like each other, but they looked even less like any of the others, so they loaded them up, they sent them as far as their delivery service was willing to take them, and said congratulations, these are your problem now

and now matter how you look at it that’s at least false marketing

Got the breed counts for our first show! Only pyrshep(expected) with 12 herding puppies total in BPup

#I’m super excited #I hope he has fun #my biggest concern is the table because he’s been weird about it in practice #but that’s a PyrShep problem as old as time lmao #‘naturally wary of strangers’ does not translate well to showing
