About fursuit commissions, dog updates
10 years ago
My mind changed a lot about should I continue doing fursuits or not. Or simply not do anymore some parts. Or only do premades. Honestly, I don't know anymore what to choose. My motivation flickers so much, there is days I want to go further and get more professional in fursuit making, there is days I just want to throw it away and stop. I will finish of course the two on-going commissions, but after that I will no longer do fursuit head nor feetpaws. I will still do handpaws, armsleeves, tail and ears on headband. I realize the parts that stress me the most is head and feetpaws, so I prefer not to do them anymore on commission. I will probably still do them for myself, premades or perhaps friends that are aware and willing to leave me open deadline. Hard decision, but I really don't feel like doing too much anymore.
About dog... Yes I had to bring him back to the SPA shelter. I don't want people to whisper shits behind my back. I had good reason to bring him back and yes it shatters me to have done it. I'm still crying about it :( He couldn't live with cats (I have 3) and neither he could support other dogs, which is dangerous considering how many dogs live around me. As well, he was found wandering in fields when he came to the shelter and it seems he can't stand living in an appartment, even if it's quite a big one. For his sanity and ours, it was the best choice to let him get back to the shelter.
Selling my fursuit will help filling debt caused by the adoption, I even gave the toys and pillow I bought for him since I didn't felt like giving them to another future dog... I would rather buy new stuff for a new dog instead. I'll try to save a bit and either get a dog with known attitude to avoid being heartbroken again OR perhaps adopt a puppy and raise it all by myself. I'm still debating which is the best for me.
To-do list:
triyune Canine fursuit tail and feetpaws => Must start feetpaws.
lord-damon Pandora Wolf Pelt => 92% done
Rosette Christopher Cosplay => Pieces all cut, need to do sewing
Keroberos Cosplay => 85% done

Maybe I'd even go for the puppy. He'll know you better than probably an adult can still. I mean, if you raise him up he'll get more used to you and understand your character. I don't know what it's like with dogs because we have always been keeping cats here...but from a logical point of view...does that make sense?
