Hello internet, please meet my new son. His name is currently Sailor but that will likely change. He is a ball of sleep and chaos and perfection

for suuuure! especially any dog that is or recently been "trendy." local shelters definitely get the "I didn't know how smart/energetic this dog was" abandonment and "there's a shitty breeder out there somewhere dumping them and I hope we find them soon but in the meantime we have 46 labradoodles"

Seriously though. If you're looking at a rescue and half their dogs are purebred shiba inus "saved from an Asian dog meat market" you need to look really hard into them before adopting or donating. Either they're ignorant and racist enough to get scammed or they're hoping you are

My partner is the talking person and I am the writing person for similar but complimentary neurodivergent reasons. And damn if it isn't the highlight of my day to listen to them on the phone being like "yes, it IS me again." The irritation tells you it's working lol

I realized none of my pictures really captured Baby Black Phillips' large huggableness. So here he is pictured with Anya. He was quickly removed because she would sell her soul and mine for a single kibble

You can put in a bid on baby Black Phillip or this extremely goth drawstring dice (or whatever) bag made by me! That is, if thou wouldst like to live deliciously.
