[BluTheDachshund]

Username: BluTheDachshund
Show Name: Jumping Over the Puddles
Call Name: Tulip
Gender: Female
Prompt: Her name was always Jumping Over the Puddles, because all her life she's been the most optimistic and hopeful Collie. (Puddles represent bad times.) She earned the name Tulip, because even the most optimistic people need somewhere to cry, and her place is a flower field.

Show Name: HOK’s Country Charmer
Call Name: Disco
Gender: Male
Prompt:

Disco grew up on a farm, used to the rough and tumble lifestyle. They all love their country music and rustic aesthetic. While Disco does love where he lives, he’s always dreamed of venturing to the big city where he can dance the night away to his favorite genre: Disco!

Show Name: SGK A lover's concerto
Call Name: Indie
Gender: Male
Prompt: The kennel workers were quick to change this boy's name a mere 3 days after his arrival. His original name was Romeo, coupled with his show name "A lover's concerto." They had expected a dog with flirt, affection, a dog that was eager to please. In reality, Indie was a dog who could not care less about humans, or his fellow kennel mates. Believe me, there is no aggressive bone in this boy's body, he was just uninterested in those around him. That's exactly where his name Indie comes from, indifference. The quote 'the opposite of love is not hate, but indifference' was quickly related to Indie in his first couple of days and the name just stuck.

[Rawr-Horse]

Username: Rawr-Horse
Show Name: VHIK Light A Fire
Call Name: Beetle
Gender: Female
Prompt: Beetle obtained her show name from her extremely firey personality. While she is not an aggressive or mean collie, she is extremely spunky, always ready to go, and sometimes hard to wrangle because of that. It takes an equally strong willed handler to work with her, and she has only a select handful of kennel buddies due to her energetic way of play. She "lights a fire" under anyone around her, spurring them into action whether they like it or not.

Secondarily, her call name, Beetle, is quite simple. She is infatuated with any bug she sees, especially beetles. She won't eat or harm them, but will follow them, nose pointed in their direction, for hours unless she is stopped and redirected.

Username: ElizaChikatta
Show Name: Wildfire's Muse
Call Name: Maple
Gender: Female
Prompt:
This little beauty earned the name after a row of incidents during a trip to a festival. Her family had never known she had such an obsession with Maple syrup until she's stolen and eaten a whole pitcher of maple syrup, got the zoomies, and then chewed on multiple maple trees to get at the syrup. Needless to say, there might've been a lot of embarrassment on the owner's part that day.

Username: Black_saphire
Show Name: fire that glows
Call Name: firefly
Gender: female
Prompt: firefly was in a house fire as a pup and was last to be found and rescued. It’s a miracle she survived. She spends every moment running around and enjoying the life she almost couldn’t have. However she still refuses to sleep inside and dosnt even mind the cold winds as the heat from the fire never really left her || she was named firefly because she slept outside she would see firefly’s and would eat them :3

[LOSTINUNKNOWN]

Username: LOSTINUNKNOWN
Show Name: Hymn Of Songbird.
Call Name: Cacophony.
Gender: Female.
Prompt: Cacophony earned her name due to the simple fact that, upon their arrival in a kennel, they fostered a plethora of whimpers and barks upon their tongue - born of the perpetual fear of the unknown - prior to being seperated from the major kennel area. To this day, the workers are unsure as to why she was so nervous within the first day, however, they believed it was due to her being a stray and subsequently, due to the dog bites embellished mercilessly beneath her pelt.
