Okay.
So i thought i had more interest in the piece, but was apparently wrong... although i did actaully colour it instead of leaving it to float eternally in oblivion.

To recap: Can't draw canines, I just don't "get" them. Plus i only ever owned one big dog that i can recall, and we didn't technically "own" him... and i can't say that i ever studied him to any degree as i tend to keep my distance from anything that has the potential to hump my leg... (long story... ish...). So think of this as a fantasy animal along the lines of a dalmation.
Plus, i am the unfortunate home to a lack of patience, and my OC abilities encompass all of three brain cells in my head.

To stop making excuses, now, i am relatively happy with how this went, all things considered. And i do like the butterfly, even though i frankly stopped caring after three seconds back in the original sketch... And i had intentions of putting grass in instead of leaving the puppy head to essentially float there, so let's all use out imaginations and fill that little part in.

And in future: an explanation of why i use the non existent word "ish" so very frequently...
