…how DARE you make me think of UNDERTALE AUS IN THE YEAR 2023!!!!

I am going insane I am going crazy

GOD I FORGOT WHYYYYYY

:(

I would love to hear about this cool party host au if u have anything to share 👀👀

I call him a bug in my tags for a reason...

lmao I am allergic to drawing anything but canines so here’s the teenage mutant ninja doggos

:) <— i am clinically insane

refs & thought process under the cut

ok so! dogs and dog breeds are definitely a special interest of mine, and while my design process is definitely just “draw what feels right” there are thoughts!!! abt breeds!!!!

also I added a lot of personal headcanons bcuz I have three dogs and hang w/ the neighborhood dogs so there’s a lot of info I’ve found for myself irl

but they’re all mixes bcuz if ur gonna use dogs as soldiers I think they'd be mutts for all the traits you can get(variety)

and I didn’t bother being very realistic with markings bcuz that’s no fun

Raph is mostly wolf based bcuz big scary wolf w/ big ass teef but just a big fluffy baby is just so Raph coded

also if he’s a canine I think he would have WAY worse snaggleteeth. like. it’s so bad.

and I gave him spikes because. they’re cool. idk sue me :/

I think Raph would be the type to eat furniture. also Raph would prolly like eating ice cubes. every time I get some ice out the freezer I have to give one to the dog bcuz she likes to eat them so much

Donnie and Leo are kinda Doberman adjacent because dobies are pretty protective and v smart (and very mouthy)

but Donnie def has some of the more mouthy tendencies(besides Raph) and bites a LOT

Mikey feels like a pom to me; loud and annoying but also good dogs(if properly handled)

also Mikey feels like curly poofy guy and poms kinda fit kinda not because small and fur make look kinda round but Poms are also kinda aggressive (ie: doctor delicate touch)

also poms kinda not good swimmers and neither are box turtles

but wolves are decent and so are dobies (plus I’ve never met a large dog who didn’t love water)

anyway I personally think that they'd have some lab for the webbed feet: make for better swimmers(also labs have like, real good temperament)

but Raph and Mikey would be the worst bcuz their fur would get waterlogged while Donnie and Leo have p short coats(because Doberman)

Mikey prolly wouldn't like swimming too much cause his coat would get waterlogged and hes a bit small so swimming is a lot more scary; it's a lot easier to enjoy water when you can touch the bottom lots of smaller dogs are ok in smaller places but the ones I know don't like the pond or lake cause of how deep they are

although I think baths are a different story because all the dogs I know HATE baths so swimming is fine but the second it's time to be clean all hell breaks loose

Raph an D an Leo throw a fit and Mikey just sits in the tub like "I can touch the bottom! :D"

splinter is just tired of being used like a chew toy

it's prolly worse

turtles do bite but dogs tend to be much more mouthy(especially when they’re little)

also there are def a LOT of like, herding dogs and other working breeds for the high energy/easy to train/highly intelligent/very strong kinda stuff that would be uber useful

basically; the designs have clear inspiration from specific breeds, but the actual genetics are completely muddled

reblogging bcuz I just read a fic abt this exact scenario

here’s the link btw

Turtles shed the plates (scutes) on their shell and their skin when going through growth spurts. Can’t be comfy…luckily April’s got them covered💛

im lof them…. <3

concept: oops, draxum didn't put enough human dna into the turtle soup
