Yay yay yay I am excited. 
Can ya tell?
Okay, enough nonsense.. while attempting to jack my stubbornly numb brain into thinking of ideas for a script I had to write for my storytelling class (it's finished more or less now, thank goodness), I came up with a brand new concept! It's been so long since I've done that that I'm getting excited. heh. (I was going to use a character or two for my script, but it was supposed to be a short film so I decided against it since it just kept expanding -_-;
Anyway. It's a fairly new concept, and it's still in the process of solidifying in my head, but basically it's about a pack of disgruntled Toy dogs who are out to prove the true nature of the stereotypically useless yappy annoying fuzzball. (And show up those damn Rin Tin Tin and Lassie wannabes while they're at it, by Canis.) I don't know what to call it, where it's going or anything but I do know I want to explore it further. Toy dogs get a bad enough rep as it is - a totally undeserved one, I might add. I might try attacking some other canine stereotypes while I'm at it.. I can't stand stereotypical/generic dog characters. They're freaking boring. Dogs have as much variety in their personalities (doganalities?) and quirks as humans do, even despite the traits bred into them, and that's something I do want to tackle. So yeah. Didn't intend to write y'all an essay about this, but there you are. When I feel strongly about something, that's the way I am.
This is Peaches the Pom, the first of my new characters for this and the leader of the pack. She may look like a cream puff - and enjoy a good brushing and a couple of Best in Show titles - but don't let that fool ya.. she's smart, sassy and an alpha female through and through. Nonetheless she is affectionate and loyal, and very good with small children if they don't pull her tail too hard. I just love her :3
I think there'll be four or five dogs in the pack in total, not counting the background characters. I'll upload sheets for all of them
If all goes well these gals may even end up starring in my senior thesis! whee.

It would be great to see more stuff fighting against Pibbles(Am staffs, Staffi bulls, Am Pits) their stereo type. Three pibbles saved their owners from a fire and people are putting it off to them just wanting out as well and that that one good pit bull does not make a good breed, of course you know if it was a golden or a lab then everyone would be 'oh hero of the year blah blah blah'. >.<(I've only met one lab thus far that was on its own properity that didnt come charging at me aggressively.)
Anyways....hehe, cute, she is cute!

Yeah, I agree that the bred-for-bloodsport breeds don't deserve their rep either, but I want to stick with the Toys because A) there's quite a number of wonderful people on dA already fighting against that stereotype, and B) I don't see anyone fighting for the Toys. In fact a number of people on this site seem to dislike Toys (Chis especially, I notice) for no apparent reason. But as I said I will probably touch on the 'aggressive' breeds somewhere in there, I am totally for the breaking of their rep. (and that story.. that's so stupid I can't believe it o_X; I might be a bit evil to the more 'popular' dogs too >D).
Thanks for commenting, it's always nice to meet a fellow dog freak who actually knows dogs

Yeah...i think that depending on the emotion of the picture the shading differs. But then again i'm dead tired and its only 11 pm here...-_- Flat color would make sense on a ref sheet. I'd really like to learn how to do cell shading sometime, tho. It comes out so cool (if you do it correctly, of course
....Well sorry to burden you anyways hehe im asleep at the keyboard pretty much...and its only 11 (i said that already, didnt i??) ahh!!! Cheesy's gone insane!!!!! *bangs head on desk franticly* jkjk actually...ok...well i must do some gift art for you soon!!!!
In any case, very nice pic of Peaches! very unique and creative with both the color and design!
i doubt my commnet will be as long as the others but i'll try
homg.....thats a great idea...i agree dogs to get alot of stereotypes...even though i'm not a doglover (but i'm not a dog hater..but i prefer cats..ok i'm rambling..close brackets mel) but i think that this could get through to alot of people....
and
let me steal peaches...shes adorable....

As for Chihuahuas, any time a breed gets popular due to commerical or movies(taco bell, thanks a lot >.< ) you end up with a lot of BYBs with that breed, then all the movie stars carrying these dogs in bags...they need walking, just because they're small doesnt mean they don't need exercise, it makes the dogs nervous and hyper.
Thing that ticked me off in South Florida was how the toy dogs got special treatment even when they were clearly being aggressive towards people, and my 50lb Ibizan was considered a danger because of his size even though he has proven to be one of the best dogs youll ever see around even the most annoying of kids. -.- I ended up(because of where I lived and the fact I had to walk to pick my brother up from school and there had recently been a rapist on the loose, it was a requirement that I took Dali with me whenever I went out) picking up and carrying Dali through the school halls one rainy day to get my brother out of school, luckily the principal was no where to be seen, she HATED me and Dali, and my mom had even called her telling her why I had to have the dog, she said she didn't care and to keep Dali away from the kids, but it was ok for *any* small dog to be on school grounds even if they were clearly being aggressive. -.- It wouldn't of been such a concern if I knew that the dogs were socialized, but in that area? HA!
So thats one thing that really angers me, how some people think its ok for small dogs to be aggressive towards people because they can't do much damage(but yet small dogs have killed humans), and any large dog unless if its a collie, lab, or golden is a danger. Where has logic gone?
Personally, there are very very few toy breeds I would ever own, theyre just not my thing and theyre too small(hell, my whippets are even too small, I'm scared I'm gonna trip and squish them >.<
