Maybe hes Yagmurs?

Nope

Yay! First denial of the season! *dances*


And can anyone tell me what I am missing? I know I need tonight's PPS and that deer leopard pup. But not sure what else. (Check temp locked group) thanks!

Tark I believe this mayhaps be yours because:
1. - The horns make my mind go to dragons and dragony = reptiley and you said 'a bit reptilian (???)'
2. - It looks like he has fiery patterns and has very fiery coloring, and you said he is quite hot and cools down underwater, and the dark could also be like... cooled lava?
3. - Firey pattern can also relate to the name which has to do with demon fire
4. - Has a suspicious firey patch on its snoot, which could also match with the 'mouth of the volcano' with the name also being able to mean volcano?
5. - Has open eyes

pls I threw this together with my last braincell

I am happy to report that my pup has a name and has been found! Congrats EchoLeaf!

Ahi Tipua is my pupper's name but despite the name, his design concept didn't really have a whole lot to do with a volcano itself. Those hints were to help you get to the name. But, as he is from an island country, he loves the sea/nature, and islands are generally born from volcanic activity (or, earthquakes/geological things). The markings though, you're a bit off on. Guess you're going to have to wait and see what happens when he grows up.

For those of you trying to guess at my first hint, how my two pups relate - you guys are close, but missed the mark. It does have something to do with the tail, but not what you think.I can leave a little mystery, right?

Sorry, that's illegal.
I do not crave mystery.
I crave animal crackers answers!

Your pup is absolutely lovely! I cant wait to see what surprises it may have in store!

[Purrycatxox]

I think I know whose he is~!!
tarkeli is he yours?

Oh! He was a right guess! I See he's confirmed! I'm glad EchoLeaf helped confirm my suspicion.

[katsue]

Y'all I'm here to go against popular opinion and guess that this:

Is Katsue's pup. Now, I know, y'all are probably thinking, "but Katsue didn't have any lava/volcano hints, how could it be?"
Well, hold tight kids, I'm about to reach.

I'm gonna start with clue 3 since it's the easiest one to connect here. Clue 3 relates to Pavlov's dogs and their conditioning of drooling at the sound of a bell. This connection is pretty obvious, this pup is drooling.

Now for clue 2. This refers to Sirius black from the Harry Potter series. Sirius can shapeshift in a black dog. The pup is kind of black. Sirius is also the name of a star and the pup has brought, starry, glowy eyes. (I also think Sirius' eyes are referred to as glowing at some point in the book but that could be unrelated)

Okay, now for the 1st clue, where I really start to reach. The clue reads, "I hail from a country known for it’s tea, look to the east and you may find me."

At first I jumped between a bunch of countries going nowhere but then kat gave me this tidbit of info, "think of one country, but the eastern part of it"

The country I settled on is Japan. It's known for its matcha and green tea (as well as tea ceremonies) and if you look to the east in Japan, one of the most notable features you see is Mount Fuji.

What is Mount Fuji? an active volcano and this pup just looks like a volcano ready to erupt.

Okay, that's what I got. I might be completely wrong, but I just couldn't let the drool go.

You got me! This is indeed my pup!

So the first hint threw some people off, but it was a reference to the stories of the cryptid-ish creature called the Black Shuck, which is a large black dog with white (or red) eyes that is said to roam East Anglia in England. Most of you got the second hint correct; it was definitely leading you to Sirius, otherwise known as the Grim (hence the title of the chapter, "Grim Defeat"), another version of the Black Shuck creature. And lastly, Pavlov and the bell was a reference to this pups drooly look, which most of you connected quickly!

Thanks for all the fun so far, detectives! Wait, don't put down those looking glasses yet-- there hasn't been a discovery of this pups name yet! Perhaps you can help me find it in the coming days?

[PastelDragon24]

Aww! You’re pup is one of my favorite from this Staff litter!

Question, which staff pups are left to be discovered by the hints?

[rocoboq]

Aww! You’re pup is one of my favorite from this Staff litter!

Question, which staff pups are left to be discovered by the hints?

only katsue, dia, simon, tarkeli, and eiocha have claimed their dogs, so there are quite a few left! i would check out the hint chart on the first post for more information there. c:
