first time i have drawn bonnie, because i cannot draw dogs,

my last lucky post was a year ago :(

#doodles #ocs #original character #cowboy #art #artists on tumblr #lucky jones #static sky #her name is bonnie. like bonnie and clyde #she's a rough collie (very annoying breed to draw. like dogs arent annoying enough to draw already) #there's a note abt her on his toyhouse but i've never drawn her before. i've TRIED but again dogs r so hard to draw #bonnie jones #don't want that ever getting confused if i ever post feddy fasbar fanart #i got inspired to draw this cuz i got the same breed of dog in fallout shelter and i gave her to tessa. cuz ofc i always have a tessa #in my vault. and that got me thinking about bonnie again

since i forget it's not common knowledge for non-Dog™ people, brief overview of the collie thing and why i was losing my shit:

idk every country, but at least for the American Kennel Club (AKC) and Canadian Kennel Club (CKC), "Collie" refers to a specific breed of dog, most iconic as the breed of "Lassie":

these three dogs are all collies. collies come in two varieties, "rough" (longhair, more common), and "smooth" (shorthair, less common). both rough and smooth collies are considered the same breed, judged to the same standards, and can be born in the same litter, similar to how a black lab and a yellow lab are both labradors. it is equally correct to refer to them as a "rough/smooth collie" or as simply a "collie," as that is their official breed name in the US/Canada. while they used to be extremely popular in the mid-20th century, collies sit at #39 on the AKC breed popularity lists nowadays, making them solidly "somewhat uncommon."

a border collie is a separate and distinct breed of dog. while they share a common ancestor with the collie and are also herding dogs, their appearance, temperament, and herding style are all distinctly different. they can come in many colors, but are most commonly black and white with medium-to-long hair:

while a border collie is a type of collie-dog, in the US they are generally referred to as "borders" or "BCs" rather than just "collies," as "collie" is already the name of a different breed. BCs are more popular than collies nowadays, so most laypeople are more familiar with them than with rough or smooth collies. but given that "collie" already refers to a different breed, in the US/Canada it's not technically correct to also refer to a border collie as simply "collie" (or call them a collie, who cares, i'm not a fucking cop).

however, this gets further muddled depending on which country you're in - for example in the UK and many european countries, there is no breed that's simply called "collie" - Rough Collies and Smooth Collies are two separate breeds, in addition to Border Collies, which are significantly more popular. in the UK, "collie" isn't the name of any specific breed, but most people will use it as shorthand for their BCs. "collie" in the UK and "collie" in the US often mean two different dogs.

and then you also have the bearded collie, again a distinct breed, but much more difficult to mix up due to A) their rarity and B) the fact that they look like walking muppets:

and honorable mention to the shetland sheepdog or "sheltie," which while related to the collie is, again, a separate breed, and most notably is significantly smaller than a collie. if you see a dog that looks like Lassie But Small, it's probably a sheltie.

IN CONCLUSION:

several different recognized breeds of collie-type dogs

only one breed is officially named "Collie" and that's the rough/smooth varieties in the US and Canada (aka "Lassie dog")

ergo, there is only one breed of dog that "collie" actually refers to (in North America at least)

however due to the differences in names between countries and the overall higher popularity of border collies, they and other breeds are sometimes also referred to as "collies"

i own a rough collie and she is very pretty and therefore superior and if you call any other type of dog a collie except for the rough/smooth type you're Wrong.

thank u for coming to my TED talk.

#common british L #no one asked for this but i'm working remote today and wanted to procrastinate #anyway this ones for all the ppl who arent obsessive about dogs #i hope u learned something today pls ask if u need me to elaborate #this is so overly long lmao #long post #i dont like the way the UK handles rough/smooth collies in general so this is just another note on my long list of grievances #'country of origin decides the breed standard' yes but have you considered: british bad

this evening I was attempting to explain the reality of cattle dogs to my best buddy from grad school, who is in no way a dog person and has never met Matilda. he does however have two small children and a functioning television, so he is familiar with Bluey. The show is... so funny to me, because it's influencing the associations people have with cattle dogs in a very distinct direction, and I had just finished showing him Dogs in Elk today...

which is how I came to describe the Australian Cattle Dog thusly:

cattle dogs are like really intense field herpetologists. very energetic, very captivated by motion, fast thinkers and often pretty impulsive. steve irwin kind of dogs.

#matilda #1 year #australian cattle dog #it's worth noting that my grad school friend and I both came out of a department that is well known for its action herpetologists #and so we are very VERY familiar with the human breed too

The latest BOAS grading stats by The Kennel Club. Those are great results and really shows what a difference getting a well bred dog makes when it comes to health.

84,8% of Frenchies, 81,8% of bulldogs and 78,6% of Pugs are unaffected.

I can't wait until these kinds of testing are available worldwide, right now in France we only have Breath testing which is clearly not as thorough.

#dog #dogblr #french bulldog #bulldog #pug #dog health #and before anyone in the notes goes off about it yes i know there are other health issues to worry about. like in all breeds #but since the population's focus are on these dogs ability to breathe : here you go. they can breathe just fine

Salukis and Personalities

I don't know if I've ever mention this before, but I worked as a dog trainer and caretaker for years. Like a really long time. And I have worked with a lot, and I mean a lot, of dogs. Even in fact, three Salukis (Ezra, Bailey, and Leo).

Why do I bring this up? Because we should talk about the personalities of these dogs, especially in relation to a character in Sing, Suki Lane.

Now this is all clearly going to be based on my experiences with these dogs, who could be outliers for all I know. However, after chatting with several Saluki owners as well, I'm pretty sure I got a decent grasp on them. Namely one thing,

Saluki's aren't timid.

They are classic sighthounds, yes, but I wouldn't call most of those dogs timid, with the exception of Whippets. Sighthounds by nature are cautious breeds, it can take a while to build their trust. This can extend into them being shy at times yes, but in my experience, it was more like meeting a new cat for the first time. It doesn't know what to think of you yet so it sits back, watches, and then makes it's judgement.

Why does that sound familiar? Oh yeah!

Because that's what Suki was doing to the troupe throughout the second movie. She didn't make her decision on them until she had been watching them for awhile, deciding to ultimately side with them after deeming them trustworthy.

That's what happened when she saved Buster from the office and when she lowered the stage lift, she was making her judgment of them known. For me, one of the Salukis I worked with, Ezra, did essentially the same thing. He acted indifferent to me for a week or so and then seemingly out of nowhere decided we were cool now and I could play with him. And because Salukis aren't particularly demonstrative typically, that's huge.

So, she wasn't being timid, she was being cautious. Something her type of dogs are known for. She would wait and see how things turn out before picking a side. That makes sense. And no, there wasn't any big apology scene or anything like that because, again, Salukis aren't typically demonstrative.

And while they are cautious, that's not actually what the breed is known for. You know what is?

Being aloof.

And that is a word that perfectly sums up Suki's personality. She's aloof. She isn't particularly warm or friendly and neither are most Saluki's unless they like you, and like you a lot. Which also makes sense with her character! She's a higher up at a major entertainment enterprise. She can't be nice to every single hopeful that shows up at their doors. She has to be realistic for the company's sake. So she's aloof and it fits her perfectly.

Saluki's also are known to be quiet and intelligent. The quietness something that isn't extremely noticeable in Suki's character when Jimmy is in the scene since he's so loud, or Buster because his personality is so big, but it's definitely there. Her answers are brief and straight to the point. And other than those few interactions, she doesn't talk much. She doesn't need to, as she is still perfectly filling her role in the scenes she's in through expressions. She might be a verbally quiet character, but like actual Salukis, her actions speak for her.

And the intelligence? We know this girl is smart. She's in her early to mid twenties and is already one of the right hands of an entertainment empire's CEO. She knows what she's doing. Suki was also able to call the police and betray Jimmy without him ever expecting it, which she had to have planned out for it to go that smoothly.

So in short, Suki and Salukis as a whole, aren't timid. They're cautious. They wait things out. And most notably, they are known to be aloof. A character trait that perfectly sums up Suki's personality that we see. Salukis from my experience act more like the stereotypical cat stuffed into a dog's body. It takes time for them to like you and even if they do, they aren't usually demonstrative of this fact. Which again lines up perfectly with Suki's character, much like the other traits Salukis are known to exhibit.

She's aloof and cautious, showing clear intelligence, but definitely not timid.

#sing 2 #sing suki #suki lane #sing 2021 #aroace suki lane #i mean i don't mention it but it would be wrong not to tag it imo #saluki dogs are very cool to work with #and yes this is all based in my experience and my contacts #and these are breed traits. each dog is different of course #but timid? not the word for this dog. they can seem shy i guess? but that's really them being cautious typically #so yeah. suki is quite literally her base species note for note #its honestly impressive #is this targeted at one thing in particular? yes. yes it is. #we don't mischaracterize dogs in this house

Ch 194: Dog Breeds

One of the interesting things in the new chapter occurs when Doll gives Finny and Snake a tour of the orphanage, and shows them how the children are divided into four classes.

These presumably align with blood type, and each one has a set “uniform” they wear, and each is named after a dog breed. Three are breeds that originated in the UK (Corgi, English Mastiff, Collie), but one is from Germany, the “most special” group, the Pomeranian Class.

It’s possible that this is very intentional and meant to have a double meaning— not only the dog, who is a small breed that is a toy and companion but also a working dog— but also, that it’s a region in Germany.

The Pomeranian is a sized-down German Spitz, and apparently Queen Victoria owned a small one and it helped to popularize the toy size, the breed shrinking by half during her reign… so definitely an apt name for Ciel clones. (She in a sense created the breed as we know it. Could this be a jab at how the Queen controls her watchdogs?)

Each class has a different focus, it seems. Whether it’s physical tasks, homemaking skills, or knowledge…

Undertaker seems to be creating some kind of army, and perhaps not just as blood banks….

Interestingly, Doll does not seem to be included in any of the classes as they’re wearing the same clothes they did when they were with the circus troupe. Doll also seemed to have sway over the matrons, so perhaps Undertaker has Doll running the show with the matrons there as figure heads ?

It also supports my theory that Finny and Snake do not have “normal” human blood, since they were going to be turned away, implying they don’t fit into one of the four classes/blood types…. Could it be possible UT has some connection to where Snake and Finny came from?

This is definitely the most unsettling of the three locales we’ve seen so far…

Please don’t disrespect me by using my screenshots or translations without credit. Thank you.

Also, as always, I’m human and make mistakes. Apologies if there are any errors.

terfs go climb into a hole and start rotting. animals cannot inherently tell your "biological sex" you are all so fucking stupid. All this post is saying is that animals are not infallible judges of character and some of them make really stupid vibe checks and that people should try not to take it personally. Unless youre a terf in which case they know and they hate you and you should take it personally

re that one post tbh i do want to stress i dont think animals are like magically psychic at knowing your True Gender tbh i think ppl definitely get way too weird about Animal's judgement of ppl.

Sometimes a dog will vibe check a man and the dog will be right and you should listen. but sometimes the dog will vibe check someone for no good reason. sometimes dogs have wack judgement. sometimes dogs have biases influenced by their owners or previous owners. like. there are Racist Dogs. its not the dogs fault, but that doesnt make the bias theyve developed less real, or less potentially hurtful. i dont think we need to like, Cancel Dogs Bc Sometimes Ppl Can Train Them To Be Racist, but we do need to stop perpetuating the idea that a dog's judgement of someone is infallible. theyre not responsible for it and its not their fault its developed, theyre just dogs, they didnt choose it, but that doesnt mean theyre RIGHT lmao. i think its important to stress this for many reasons but in regard to that last post specifically, if youve ever been vibe checked as a gender you arent by a judgy dog its literally not your fault. might not even be the owners fault. not the dogs fault cos like. its a fucking dog. you do kinda have to be the bigger person in that scenario cos the other person is. A Dog.

#toy txt post #this was meant to be a quick post it got a bit longer and more in depth than i planned oops #i just hate when ppl act like All Dogs have Inherently Correct Judgement Of People #like from every angle. its funny to joke about but i know theres ppl out there who might be feeling like #very fragile in their gender or smth and seeing a post like that if they meet a dog that normally hates men but not women but it doesnt #recognize your inherent true gender im sure seeing shit like that post can be a horr #got interrupted by a phone call while typing it and the post is glitching so i cant see where that tag is cut off so uh #dogs are like ppl in that they can develop biases and have bad judgement and they dont always get it right #they are not like ppl in that it is not possible to ask a dog to examine its biases. you cannot make a dog take a class on #critical race theory. you have to work to socialize and desensitize them against those biases or at least make sure those biases theyve #developed dont negatively impact ppl. in this sense i guess im morally obligated to try to learn more spanish to see if it helps my dog #chill. shes nervous around all new ppl but parents have anecdotally noted she extra dislikes men speaking in spanish. she was a stray so we #dont really know her history. she also does Not like fire pokers outside. weirdly even tho its basically the same tool she is unfazed by #the indoor poker for the woodstove? but ig she wouldve had less exposure to indoor woodstoves as a stray in Louisiana? #but i can see like ppl having a little backyard barbecue and threatening the big mastiff looking stray dog with a fire poker and i think #that region of the country prolly has a higher number of spanish speaking ppl than our current residence so the odds of her running into a #spanish speaking guy who isnt very nice are prolly higher just due to a denser population as a whole. and we think shes part mastiff which #i think is a breed already prone to disliking strangers that probably cooked up into a little cocktail in her brain #luckily shes bad enough with All Strangers that i think honestly it would be hard to even notice her bias? but. ig i need to see if i can #desensitize her? idk. sighs but im scared to open duolingo now 😭. but i could maybe do it. when other ppl wear hats she fucking hates it #i wear a fucking face covering mask that looks like a giant eyeball she looks at me a little quizzically but is fine. jester hat? fine #i am like that video of the person desensitizing that horse except thats just like. living w me. minus the cat thing. id never do that to #the cats or dog. everyone would hate that. squirrel already cant tolerate being held while a dog is out cos he THINKS im going to do that. #it would traumatize the dog cos he'd injure me escaping and then prolly her trying to scare her off to get past her and shes just minding #her business. solo i cant hold that long but is less likely to injure anyone. shadow. first of all all 3 are way too heavy to be holding #like that #im getting lost in the tags again sorry im chewing caffeinated gum. i should go try to buy some catnip #ive made my Phone Calls. im gonna try to go get dressed and buy various catnip products. maybe lure him with a toy this time. need my #parents to help me but not be so visibly Ready to help me next time cos i do not want to chase his ass again...

[zombiepatch]

so fucked up that larger dog breeds don't live long 😭 newfoundland dogs have an 8-10 year lifespan... bernese mountain dogs only have a shocking 6-8 years. like fuuuck i grew up with golden retrievers and i thought the 10-12 year lifespan was hard enough. idk where i'm going with this, it just makes me sad :(

#i've been watching dog videos and im always drawn to the biggest and fluffiest breeds #like i'm glad i didn't get one when choosing callie (she's a sheltie) bc i can't handle a huge dog on my own #and callie is perfectly me-sized #but aesthetically holy shit dude i love a massive dog #on a happier note callie is napping rn and looks very sweet ty

these places banning bully breeds of dogs bc theyre sooo scawy when really they should be banning doodles

#from what ive heard . so many doodles are badly backyard bred and are usually gotten by idiots who dont know anything #about how to train or maintain a dog especially a dog with a coat like that. i hear that dog groomers hate doodles bc theyre #always so extremely matted and badly behaved 😭 #but also authors note im joking i dont think dog breeds should be banned i just think that backyard breeding should be banned #and that dog owners should be more vetted before being allowed to get a dog #personally at this point i feel like people should have to get a license before being allowed to own a dog like how you have to #get a drivers license. i think it would fix sooo many problems if people have to take (a free and accessible) course on #how to properly take care of a dog before getting one. #screaming crying into the void i hate bad dog owners im so so sick of people who should not have dogs having them anyways .
