Some updates for Zach! Sorry they are so long over do, I have been dealing with some stuff and had to put my natural raising on hold for a little bit. But as you guys have probably noticed I am back recently, and my petz need some attention.
Thanks
nightwish ! I do love his blue eyes and white nose patch too! I've been training him to do tricks, but he can be quite stubborn. A lot of the time when I'm wiggling a treat for him he will just stare blankly at me and not pay attention to the treat. It gets very frustrating sometimes. But with persistence and patience he will eventually look at the treat and then do a trick. I've trained him to do a nice handful of tricks so far and I plan to keep at it.
I usually try to match the show name and call name together, but sometimes it just doesn't work out and they are not directly related. But Remember the Blue Cheese is just so funny! LOL I love it!
As you have noticed,
Thor , a lot of my petz are named after song lyrics. XD I guess it's my unofficial theme. I didn't consciously choose to have any kind of theme with my show names. But I do love music, and I find a lot of lyrics inspiring and think they make good show names. So it just happened that a lot of my petz have lyrics as show names. But sometimes I get my inspiration from other places, sometimes movies, TV shows, or books, and sometimes I just think up names randomly. I like the names of my petz to fit them in some way if I can. Something about how they look, or act, some personality trait, or something I was doing or thinking about when I hexed, bred, or adopted them. Or maybe they just seem to fit in some weird, unconscious, indefinable way. Sometimes I come up with names really quickly, sometimes it takes quite a lot of thinking about it, and sometimes I'll think of a cool name before I have a pet for it to go with, so I'll make a note of it and wait for the right pet to come along that the name fits with.
Thanks
Buck ! And wow, I didn't know that Danes are not usually good at catching frisbees! (although it makes sense now that I think about it, since Danes are known for being clumsy goofballs) That makes Zach's frisbee skills that much more impressive. Since his first successes at catching the frisbee, he's still pretty good at it, although he misses sometimes so it seems he had a bit of beginner's luck at first. But still, he's very good at it, especially for a Dane. And yep, his mother is from you so that's very cool. She's a very pretty dog herself! And her and Cobalt Blue make beautiful puppies.
Aww thanks
Shade ! I'm glad you like him so much! Hehe, and that's okay, thinking of show names can be hard.
But speaking of that, I bet you are all wondering what I finally decided on for Zachariah. While I liked the suggested Blue Cheese names a lot, and my own initial ideas too, in the end something completely different popped into my head and I knew that was the one. His show name is now....
Black Mist's I Just Play For Fun. It goes well with his very playful personality. How did I come up with that?
Well there is this place near where I live called Sculpture Park. It's a place where you can walk around and see all these huge sculptures, most of them abstract in some way or another. I used to love to go there as a kid, run around and look at all the neat artwork that sparked my imagination. I used to go with my cousins a lot. Anyway, the name of my favorite sculpture there was titled 'I Just Play For Fun' And it was this big archway made of plaster or concrete or something I don't know, but stuck all over it, covering it's surface, were all these random objects. Pieces of colored glass, fancy doorknobs, plates, old toys, small pieces that might have gone to some kind of machinery.... Just all kinds of random things. I LOVED it. I could look at it for hours and see new things everywhere. It was just.... exactly my kind of thing. So even though I haven't been to Sculpture Park in a long time, I remembered that sculpture and that name, and when it randomly popped into my head recently I somehow knew it would be Zach's show name.
In other news, Zach became an adult today! He is growing so fast. His voice is changing, and he now barks like an adult more than a puppy most of the time. He spends a lot of his time hanging out with his best friend, Wish. Wish is a little older than Zach, so now that they are both adults, I have spayed/neutered them temporarily. Don't get me wrong! I would love if they fell in love and had puppies, I'd love to see what their puppies might look like. But I want to wait. They are not full grown yet, and I want them to focus on their training and getting some titles before they have puppies. So note I said
temporarily spayed/neutered. I love that PetzA makes it so easy to undo that whenever we want. I used to have to be so careful, only letting male petz play with males, and female petz with females (or different species) when I didn't want to have puppies or kittens. But now I just neuter and un-neuter whenever I want, and my petz get to spend as much time as they want with their best friends and fall in love whenever their heart desires. <3
Anyway, so far Wish and Zach haven't fallen in love, they are just really good friends. But they are such very good friends! They are playing all the time.
And look at this! I've wanted to catch them tossing a toy back and forth for a long time! Now that I have ScreenToGif I finally managed to do it! I love it when dogz do this! It's hilarious and adorable!
And now some more pictures of Zachariah and Wish!
Look how big he's getting! Aww, Zach wants to play!
Zach and Wish look so cute together!
They love to leap and paw at each other!
They are showing off for the camera!
While playing on the beach Zach found a sea shell, and offered it to Wish, awww, how sweet.
Don't they look so adorable playing together?
Wish is playing dead!
Aww they are staring at each other.
They played so much they tired themselves out. Now they are sleeping next to each other, awww.
Zach wants to play tug but Wish is not paying attention right now.
That's right Zach, now you're going to get licked to death!
Zach playfully lunges at Wish, she pretends to be annoyed, but it's all part of the game!
Just laying around, chillin' out.
More wrestling!
Oh, and now the younger pup gets the upper hand! At least for now.
Wish: "I hope no one notices these holes I'm digging in the flower garden."
Zach: "Uhhh.... yeah.... I'm sure no one will notice...Suuuurrrrre."
Wish you look really silly, ya know?
Wish: "What are you doing?"
Zach: "Rolling in the grass feels so good!"
Frolicking in the flower garden!
I have actually done custom music before but I have never had any issues with it. You could try renaming it as one of the original songs and remove the original song from the songz folder.
got my game going now yay!!!!
