[Griffin Torrens]

Username: Griffin Torrens
Name: Teasel | Teasing the Sheep
Gender: Male
Prompt: Call name is named after Teasel, a flower that looks almost like a hedgehog with it's prickly shape! It's always been on of my favourites for this reason. I chose it because of the colour and scary appearance (yet if you stroke it the correct way it doesn't spike at all), and I imagine this collie would have a scruffy yet soft coat.
Researching it further, the show name is a pun! Teasel used to be used to "tease" (as in, comb) out sheep's wool in textile making, however this collie is somewhat of a nuisance when herding sheep, having a little too much fun with it!

Username: razr
Name: Bloom in the Dark // Naab
Gender: DFAB
Prompt: originally named for her peaceful disposition and soft fur, naab is named after the mayan word for water lilies ! she grew into her name more than expected though, as she gained an affinity for water and those that live in it. she gained her title as an homage for the flower she was named after, and to honor her resilience <3

[Restful Dead]

Username: Restful Dead
Name: Allium
Gender: Female
Prompt: Alliums are a genus of plants that include not only the colorful flowering species that decorate many gardens, but also some common edible plants such as garlic, leeks, chives, and onions. It's this latter fact that she was given her name, due to her proclivity for cooking. She always knows just the right ingredients to add to really bring the whole meal together. Some might say she's a little too fond of garlic in particular, but you'd be hard-pressed to argue with the results, nonetheless.

Username: spiritbox

[Marz-With-A-Z]

Username: Marz-With-A-Z
Name: G&S Flower in a Field of Weeds "Prairie-Fire"
Gender: Female
Prompt: Prairie-fire is another name for indian paintbrush flowers. She's named for her 'fiery' personality and the way her red fur sticks out in the green grass fields (and subsequently mixes with it as it turns yellow and dies in the colder months, though her white tipped tail is always visible and easy to follow.) She can be very bossy, stubborn, and energetic to the point of being referred to as 'a force of nature' in the kennel.
