Highland Tracker Collies
HTC's, bred best for tracking and hunting small game!

this is our mascot, fetch!
what are highland tracker collies / htcs?
- - -
highland tracker collies are a user-made adoptable (UMA) run by me, rem sleep, and originally
created by The Cure - who made the both the default and vintage lineart sets! they are a
species of collie dogs bred for tracking and hunting small game, but more than that, they
are adorable canine companions suitable for any signature or profile page. while htcs are
based on realistic collies, you will find many of them are very fantastical and sparkly, while
others hardly resemble collies at all! ultimately, they are more or less very cute pixel dogs
that are meant to bring a little happiness to those who are fortunate enough to own one.
you will find here at highland tracker collies that we're much more interested in cute dogs
than realistic species genetics and lore, but you are welcome to develop your collies however
you like! whatever it is that speaks to you, whether it's cute lil doggos or a more realistic angle,
all are welcome here to enjoy funny pixel pets.

da rules
- - -
1. highland tracker collies are a first-come-first-served (FCFS) adoptable!
this means that whoever posts the correct form first will receive that collie.
2. you may only adopt a maximum of one free collie and one shop collie every 12 hours.
this is to give everyone a fair chance at adopting a collie.
3. you must make a post on the co-op archive to participate in the UMA.
though you may also store your collies in a toyhou.se or character thread, having a co-op post is still required.
4. you must put a number in your adoption form!
forms that say 'any that are open' / 'any that are left' are not valid forms and will not be approved, sorry!
5. your form must have the current / correct code word to adopt
if you have the wrong code word in your litter adoption form, you will be denied, sorry!
6. editing your adoption post in any way is not allowed!
please do not edit your post. you may quote it and post again if something in your form is incorrect, or if you
would like to swap numbers, but you cannot edit the original post or you will be disqualified from adopting that litter.
7. you may only swap numbers once!
sometimes after you've claimed a collie you realize you claimed the wrong one. no big deal! you can quote your form
to correct it and say you'd like to swap to a different number. you may only do this once per litter though to prevent confusion!please be sure you are only posting to claim collies you really want.
8. do not put your collie in your archive until the litter code post is made.
a lot of confusing things can happen when a litter goes up for adoption, so please make sure you got the collie you
wanted before adding them to your archive! the litter code post will say who got what collie for sure.
9. images of your collie may not be edited in any way! please do not edit your collie's original image.
you may use items in the shop to have edits applied to your collie. you may use your collie's original image as a reference when ordering or making art, and you may develop your collie as an original character, but please do not edit the original image yourself. edits to collies may only be done by artists!
10. there may be special collie adoption opportunities on discord, as well as notifications of when litters will be going up!
11. please do not ask to be staff, or ask when staff opportunities will be available.
I will post notifying everyone when staff applications are open / when I am looking for more staff!
12. insulting an artist's/staff member's work is strictly prohibited. please be respectful!
13. if it is discovered that you are using an alternate account to adopt more collies, you will be banned.
14. if you are banned, you may transfer out, gift away, or send your collies to me to be re-adopted out.
15. accounts that are less than 2 months old may not adopt a collie.
16. you may trade your collie for other UMAs if you so choose.
you may also trade them for art, collie coins, paw points, or other characters!
17. you may not resell your collie unless you paid for them.
you may not sell your collie for more than you originally paid unless there is additional artwork.
18. violation of the rules will result in one strike each time.
if you accumulate three strikes you will be banned from the UMA.
19. all cs rules still apply.
20. and finally, have fun!
this UMA is meant to be casual and enjoyable for all, so please be kind and remember this rule.

if you would like other users to make gift art of your collies for paw points, be sure to go add the new
gift art tab to your archive so other users know whether it is ok to draw your collies, or whether you
would prefer they didn't!
