Entry for piIIows' design contest~

I was trying to avoid the shark dog theme to be honest but he just appeared. q:

Yes he has gills xD Basically a hybrid, his gills mean he can spend a heck of a lot of time underwater. I didn't want to make him a backstory cuz I didn't know if we're meant to(?) but I thought a little of one while making his accesories. I imagined he was a pretty rad pet for some kid once, but he got big, and has an amazing amount of energy, and y'know, you cant keep a shark dog in a yard, so he was dumped when the kid got older and left for college or whatever. He still wears the collar from his younger days on his leg. This is optional btw if you choose him haha, just blabbing xD

He's lean and has long legs for swimming, build is streamline. His fur is short around his gills.
