I like the pose. The hands are a bit off, but they've always been hard for you I believe.

I think it looks to much like a CS dog. How come if you take somebody elses character its art theft but if you make a CS design (which is for everybody) A character then say all others are art tehft thats perfectly ok?

Great job spotty! I love the way you do faces!

You mean this CS dog?

I belive it is alrigth because the aren't based on each other but a real kind of dog. I both CS and Rainbowwolf based their designs on a blue merle Australian sheapherd like this one:

Screwed up the image link for the CS dog, I meant this one:

True but I mean alot of the people I saw on CS had target dogs and tribals and what not.
She just reminded me of that dog very much so. But it is based apon a real dog so I'll shut my trap ;P.

Oh yes, I know what you mean. I can't stand it when people just pick CS pets and use as "fursonas"...

Argh thats worse.
What I reeeeealy hate though is someone dressed up a CS dog and then got a ton of art for it. Then somebody else had the same pet but undressed and got some art of it and they flipped on them. They said it was their character. Nobody stopped them.
They bug me when they claim copyright for something that they can't own.. (Same thing happend to the ookami wolf. not even a design change)

What? They dressed up a CS pet and got art, and then raved over someone else getting art of the same char? Yeah... That so makes sence...
I hate it when people just take designs they like. There is someone who has Red XIII from the FF7 game, no changes at all except it's in wolf form. And Someone with Gir, but named something else. Ridicoulus. I don't think they claim to own the original ones, but to grab them and make their characters/"fursonas" doesn't work very well...

I know right? Blows my mind...
Ugh it bugs me so much, sometimes I just want to say, If your going to steal art atleast do it right! But I don't want them to steal so ya xD.
Exactly!

That's so cute! I am a fan of merles myself. The pose definately fits an Border Collie personality.
