[Summer~Breeze]

What do you hoard?
I hoard a lot of things, but my favourite and most-focused hoard would have to be my second largest, the January 2011 Cake PPS. I call it "The Crazy Cake Lady". x3


Why do you hoard them?
I love the design and I'm a sucker for edited PPS pups.

How large is your hoard?
256 at the moment!

What is your goal for the hoard?
My original goal was 1,000 by the end of 2011, but... well, that didn't happen. xD But I'd love to have 1,000 of them someday.

Do you overpay for hoard pets/items?
No. :U Roar.

What was the first pet/item in your hoard?
This one, because I adopted her myself.

Ohmigosh they are so ADORABLE! If I have any spares (which I don't at the moment) ill send them over! c:

5 more lion til i reach 900!

Why do you hoard them?
I've started hoarding them since my very first month on Chicken Smoothie. Just because they are so beautiful.

903 dogs, holding the record for most single outcome hoard of 2010
What is your goal for the hoard?
To reach 1000 pets. :3
Do you overpay for hoard pets/items?
Yes I often overpay for these dogs, but I've had times that people gave me them for free as well. Very kind people. ^^
What was the first pet/item in your hoard?

Bizzare was my first dog with this design, and I had named the hoard after him, 'Bizzare dogs'. I had changed the name to 'The Devine Comedy' though.

What do you hoard?
I hoard many pets, all for reasons of my own.
My top three hoards are:
Flowers for Daddy - My Father passed away in July and I collect these flower dogs in honor of him.
2013 year of the snake litter - I am a snake and very proud to be one. They are my newest hoard.
DisabledLlama's penguins - My biggest hoard because I adore penguins. <3

Why do you hoard them?
If you have any question on why I hoard a specific hoard, feel free to ask. I think its too much to post here, but maybe one day I will.

How large is your hoard?
My largest hoard is my Penguins and its currently 1799

What is your goal for the hoard?
I dont really have any goals, well maybe one. I'd like to hold a record for my penguins.

Do you overpay for hoard pets/items?
I forgot i do hoard some items. xD
But sometimes I do overpay.

What was the first pet/item in your hoard?
I think my first hoard was the Cancer and Aries

I've been around for quite a while and seen a lot of Hoard discussions go nasty within a couple of pages, I'm very glad there is a place for us to discussion our passion for hoarding...

[cujo.]

i've decided to start a few new hoards, all connected ^.^
• the tricolour natural. i love the eyes ((heterochromia like myself)) and the colours
• and also the brown sorren x tricolour natural 2nd gen litter, because their the perfect mix of two of my favourite cs dogs c:

Awwww that sounds lovely! Wow, you have heterochromia eyes! That's so cool! What colours are they? c:

one of my eyes is blue, the other is brown. And since I'm bad with left and right their like this c:



Got a lovely new boy for my Mud Elixir hoard. Brand new from the pound =3

Okay, major dilemma time!

Should I Name All Of My Staff Puppies? I have 2000 and something and I don't know! It's such a major dilemma that I've made a poll for it on my auction thread and trade thread

WHAT
Any design I like, on any lineart. My current unfinished hoards are at the bottom.

WHY
Because I like particular designs enough to collect multiples of it and display it in its own special group. I´ve also hoarded just based on the artist- five of every adult dog they created.

HOW LARGE
It depends on the design, the species, and the apparent popularity of the outcome(s) I want to hoard. I´ve got a handful that are just 3, a couple that go up to 48 (although those are song hoards, where the design of an outcome/litter fits perfectly with a song I know and the pets are named to form the lyrics), and my artist hoard got up to 215.
Usually it´s 8 for dogs, 12 for rats, 6 for horses, 8 for ponies, 8 for cats, and 10 for butterfly wolves.

GOAL
None really.

OVERPAY
If it seems like that´s the only way to get a particular pet. For example, many people won´t part with ungrown outcomes unless you offer at least a year´s difference. I´ve never given more than a low uncommon though, and always for multiple pets at once.

FIRST HOARD
I believe it was Skies of Pride, the May 2010 Lullaby litter.

13 pets in all.


My newest hoards are three of the Valentine´s pets.
The Coursers of Spright´s Crater -- Goal of 6, have 3.
It Rather Suits Us in the Interim -- Goal of 10, have 7.
Nothing Like the Dreams We Once Held -- Goal of 10, have 5.

What do you hoard?

Baskin Robbins

Why do you hoard them?
I fell in love with the designs. They also made me think of ice cream - so I decided to make a 'Baskin Robbins' hoard in honor of one of my favorite childhood stores. As a result they are named after the original 31 flavours Baskin Robbins started with.The summer ice cream items were perfect for them, and the theme I have going on c: Eventually I would like to have them all dressed up.

How large is your hoard?
31 - for the original flavors.

What is your goal for the hoard?
complete.

Do you overpay for hoard pets/items?
I am not looking for any more of the actual pups / but I am currently looking for (possibly over paying) the ice cream items.

Oh wow xD It really depends on what you want to name them with (ie: how easy/difficult it is to think of names) and just how much time you have on your hands. And of course, it also depends on if you want to get it all done in one day (... I hope not, for your sanity ) or if you're fine with just chugging through slowly over the course of a long time :3
