Just did the math and we have like 19/27 left to pin to their creators.

Though correctly binding 8 pups to their creators with about 2 weeks of september left isnt too bad :p

I say we work on Raires or Pluma's next....they seem to have the most clues hanging around xD

Nah it would be the vibrant colors and sweet smelling hint, though I might as well tell you that both the vibrant colors/sweet smelling hint and feathers hint are linked together to lead to the same thing. The context of the first hint also doesn't refer to my pup.

So "It started with something eye catching in terms of colors... and something that smelled so sweet. Now look how far it's gone. Nope, sorry! You're on your own for this one, good luck!" and "Feathers are fun; for scarves, wings, pens, etc. What else could there be..." are linked together and lead to the same thing? Hmm.... Any idea's guys?

Could it be a sweet bird (bird with 'sweet' or the synonym of such in its name, that is), or a bird that enjoys fruit/sugar/honey? I would think bellbird, as bells can sound sweet, plus the birds drink nectar from flowers, but I doubt Swift would've heard of them :'c I might do some digging later on, see if I can come up with anything c:

I'd love to claim my pup. Maybe if you shift focus to my clues? ^^

Time to make some blind guesses on which is Lacunas.
Maybe you could tell us if it's grown into the third stage yet? :')

Nope, my dog hasn't grown yet. Looks like someone might be getting the adjective! I wonder what it could mean... You can ask another interesting question if you want.

Wait, what adjective? Blind?

*sits back and drinks some iced coffee* While I'd be very happy if you talk about my pup, somebody seems very eager...

oop!! didn't know, my apologies
never heard that ethulai confirmed

on the topic of my original post though somewhat, kinda curious to see if we will get any more hints through edits actually

[Mewfle]

Got any theories for me tonight? I'm getting eager to confess to mine as well, so this time I'm only asking you to give me one pup instead of two. Connect all my hints to it and I will give you either a denial or a confirmation. You're welcome to try multiple times now: I'll confirm/deny as many pups as you can match my hints to until you find the right one. :3 Good luck!

"1. ""Most prominent tone on yours? Medium; light or dark?"" ""Mmm, I'd say light. ^^ But is it always that way? Hmm ... Maybe, maybe not? "" The light colour probably isn't the most prominent tone, but perhaps when it grows it might change?
2. ""Mine has something edited. "" Shorter legs and that thing on its back
3. ""What would be the average person's reaction to coming across your pup in a dark alley?"" ""Generally positive, I'd imagine -- at least it seems unlikely someone would have a negative reaction. ^^"" This pupper doesn't seem like it would have a negative reaction, I mean most people wouldn't not like something with stubby legs right? It seems cute in my opinion heh
4. ""But that probably won't help you much, I'm afraid. It does have a meaning that connects to the design, but not one you're likely to figure out on your own. I do still have another potentially useful hint out there nobody seems to have found yet, though!""
5. ""afaotofgyetlatxoaipccucpnylabckxmirnaceaoyocacmihtaxparefpystrtitoerxpssreeosycide""" Coffee names, but the design isn't necessarily connected with coffee. This pup seems tired, and when most people are tired, they go drink coffee?

Yeah my reasoning isn't great but I suppose it was worth a shot xD

Reason: You are my favourite ^^

anyone else notice this on this post? i don't think it's.. entirely too relevant but you never know with how everyone has been with hints lately

P: The mentioned pup is Ethulais.

Even if it's not Pluma's like I had been hoping in the beginning I really want to know whose this one is... It's going to drive me insane until i know... XD

Pluma such a troll btw... XP

[Schuyler]

@Mewfle: Nope, not mine either. Sorry!
We're having some difficulty figuring out the coffee thing, it seems, so because I'm ever so generous, if you poke around a bit, you might come across something new somewhere that may help point you in the right direction. ;)

@Pluma : Also you never did deny btw the pup I pointed out that could be yours at the time, perhaps because I pointed it out early on of course, perhaps it might not be yours now, but would you care to say?

@Schuyler : Would you're pups eyes by chance be primary, secondary or might you consider them intermediate?
Don't have to answer but I thought I'd ask something of course just to have some sort of participation in this game of questions and whatnot. ^^

Going to make the same offer I did the other day: give me two or more pups that fit with all my hints and I will pick one of them to confirm or deny. ^^

And another chance tonight! But first, let me just say that nobody has interpreted my coffee hint quite right yet. You're right that I gave you a list of different coffee types, but what to do with it now? 🤔 As much as I love coffee, my pup is neither coffee-related, nor coffee-inspired.

So with that in mind, anyone got a theory or two?

my silly theory was that the wrapped pup was yours - but that the wrapper was actually a coffee cup surrounding your favourite beverage. Besides it grew up to be a block of chocolate so what's left...

How bout the other dog that grew up (on day 15) with the X markings on the shoulder etc. Could be the little things they have on takeaway coffee cups to indicate what type of beverage is inside... But the not coffee-related or inspired hint is counter intuitive to that notion...
he's definitely a light coloured dog and has something editted which fits the other hints that I have... (also makes me think of a picasso with that eye but maybe that's just me) I don't remember seeing a denial for him so I really hope I didn't miss it
