Let's get right to the point. No messing around here xD

General:
-Please do not PM any of the staff. If you have a question, PM this account.
-Send all trades to this account.
-NO flaming, harrasing, or swearing, please. Keep it PG-13.
-Do not steal the art.
-No god-modding in the RP. I doubt your dog will never have to go to the vet, or just all of a sudden get better.
-All employees have the right to add/change any rule they please.
-We have the right to refuse service to anyone.
-Read the whole front page! I can't stress it enough!
-Advertising. Ha. You may post links, say if someone lost a thread for something, but nothing like "Go click here and buy something! (( Unless I say you can )) Also, if you would like to affiliate, just post your banner here. But don't say "Go there!" Get it? Got it? Good.
-Pop advertising is strictly forbidden. For those of you who don't know, posting something that advertises and never returning to this shop is called pop advertising in my book. It bugs me. See page 71 for an example-ish thinger.

Flatsale:
-You may purchase one for yourself, one for another person per flatsale. Two tops.
-I will not reserve pets for you. It's first come, first serve.
-Please send the trade to the mule. If anyone sends gold to our main accounts, it will be considered a donation and you will not get a pet for it.
-Trades must be sent within 24 hours. Please do not send the trade before I announce the winners, or again, it will be counted as a donation.
-Obey the general rules.
-No telling a sob story about how you're the only one to get this certain pet because it looks like your old dead dog Rover x.x It's not nice.

Auction:
-No sniping.
-Do not harrass other bidders.
-You must bid before the last 30 minutes of an auction for your bid to qualify.
-You may only bid for one Pet in an auction.
-No retracting or editing bids!
-Wait for whoever is running the auction to announce the winners. Do not assume you have won. If it has been announced that you are indeed a winner, return to this thread or the main one and post a name for your new beauty. If you do not post a name within 1 week, it will be assumed that your basket/pup/dog has been abandoned and it will be put up for either auction or flatsale. Please send the trade to D. S. Kennels (( the mule )).
-You have 2 days to pay for your Pet, unless said otherwise. Value of items are lowest buy price on the market.

Information


Well, this is basically a German Shepherd breeding, training, showing, and companionship camp. Most dogs here are all pure bred German Shepherds, but occasionally... we might get others.

Basket: You're dog is currently sleeping it's younger years away in this cute little basket! Keep the blankets clean and warm, and make sure your new little bundle stays bundled. Very vulnerable at this stage, certain effects may show up later in life due to lack of care.
Pup: Congratulations! Your basket's blankets have been pulled back to reveal a lovely pup! This is the imprinting stage; whereas, puppy see, puppy do. Major personality traits will be revealed at this time, so you must constantly be with him or her! If he/she's neglected, it may show up as major developmental problems at the adult stage. Oh, and one more thing. Hyperhyperhyper.
Adult: Woohoo! You're dog has now grown to adulthood! It can breed, find a permanent mate, and be put into shows and competitions! All personality and physical traits will be present at this time, as well as all opinions will have been made. i.e. If it was abused at a younger age, from now on, it will think humans are bad. (( <- Not a good idea ))

Frequently Asked Questions


When will the next flatsale be?
Well, keep posted in the thread, and you might find out ^_^ The mailing list is good too.

omg cen i plz hv 1 ?????!!!!!!11!one!!eleven!
stare I'm not even going to answer that one.

May I please have one for free?
Nope. No matter how nicely you ask, nope.

But you gave _____ one! scream
That's because they don't scream at me, and maybe I'm really good friends with them.

i dnt hv tht much $$$, but cen i plz hv 1 neways?????
Nope. Pay the set price, learn some English, and I may think about it.

How come they are so inexpensive?
Well, since we're just starting out, we want to see how fast they sell like hotcakes xD But when we get more popular, we will be raising prices, if not by only a little.

Then why are the customs 100k+?
Because we want to make sure you're very committed to your pet.

Can I have a pink pup with blue markings and a green tail?
Nope. Mostly realistic doggie colors... like browns, blacks, whites, grays, and reds. Doesn't have to be German Shepherd coloring, just kind of around the main doggie colors.

Where do we roleplay?
Well, for now, we have a group roleplay thread, as well as, if you ask, private roleplay threads. Roleplay is also welcome in this main thread, as well as when we get a guild... ninja

Can the dogs talk?
Yes and no. They can talk to other dogs, but not to humans.

Please ask more questions!

Flatsales


Flatsales are not a rare occurance. Once in a while, some stray dogs may show up, a litter may be born, or one of our loyal regulars would like to sell one from their own litter. Here's where they will be sold for a flat price.

Procedure:
Let's just say there's a pup. We'd put him/her here with a little bit of background information, pre-name (( which can be changed )), and gender. That is how the pup will be for the rest of it's life.
The name can only be changed if the dog is still in basket stage. So, if you're pup is a pup, it stays the same name. If your pups are flatsale first generation pups, everything but gender and color can be changed. Do not send the trade until I have quoted it, and said for you to send the trade. Otherwise, it will be accepted as a donation. Please send the trade to this account.

A registered name is its full name. i.e. Sunnytop Farm's Blue Lagoon. The nickname may be Lagoon, I dunno.

i.e. [image here] Grethel was a stray, found in the back alleys of this facility. She is a loving, caring pup, but she needs extra love and care, because of some still-healing physical wounds to her hind legs and chest. Her registered name is Gingerbread House's Grethel. [/example.]

For the kennel name, just do as I did here. My kennel's name is AF. So when I named Domino... AF Fall Down Domino. Just add it to the beginning.

Not so hard, huh?

Please post this form in a flatsale:

[color=red][b]Username of Owner:[/b]
[b]Pre-name of Dog:[/b]
[b]New Name (( if applicable )):[/b]
[b]Registered Name:[/b]
[b]Kennel Name:[/b][/color]


One thing. Only post this form after I post GO in big green letters. I will ask for a five minute no-post period between the reposting of the pets being sold and the Go post. If there are any posts in there, I will wait another five minutes.

Next flatsale: ???
Previews:
None.

Shows


A loud pounding echoes in your ear, the chants of young children all around you is overwhelming. Your dog is tight on its leash, panting loyally at your side as you lead it around the ring one last time. The judge looks at all of the dogs carefully, and a silence creeps over the crowd. She points to a younger dog in front of you. An applause. Then she points to your dog. Thunderous clapping emerges from the audience. Three more dogs. One more time around. She pauses. "Order is second, first, third, fifth, fourth." Which were you? First! You had won! You jumped up cheerfully, as the other handlers came over and congratulated you. Your dog stood on the platform proudly, showing off its finest pose. The trophy was heavy in your arms, and you cried happily. The dog you trained was finally Best In Show.

Nice story, huh? Well, that can happen here too! But we'll wait until everything's all set up, and we have some adults to do that ^_^

Procedure: Coming soon.

Entrants: None.

Trophies: None.
Point Values


Point values are the little things on the cert (( /50 )) Yes, they are out of 50 points.

At pup stage, if they had grown from the basket stage, the point value will atomatically be at 20 points. Adults, if they are really good, may only get to 30 points. To get 50 points even, you need to have competed in shows.
Customs


Haha, customs... I'll edit this one up in a bit. (( Varies by colorist ))

Dreams


Once in a while, a really good person from this shop doesn't have enough to get the custom they want. That's where dreams come in.

Let's say you want a cosplay of your old dog. PM the form and reference pics to me. If you arpee as that dog and post in here enough, we may reward you with your custom <3

The form:


Username:
Dog Nickname:
Dog Registered Name:
Stage Starting At:
Eye Color:
Body Color:
Markings:
Anything Special:
Special Certs: (( Y / N ))
(( if Yes )) What would you like it to say:


The special certs are basically a memorial part. Like somewhere, it could say "Rest in Peace Rover" and the birth and death dates.
Items


Items are currently unavailable, unless you'd like a collar <3 No tags yet, unless the colorist would like to do it themselves.
