It's been a good run, but it's time to lay POH to rest. It's been my pride and joy... but I'd rather let it gracefully pass on instead of struggle and suffer. <3
I'll PM the original donators to return their donations, as soon as I get my laptop back from the shop. If you've changed your username, wait to claim them from a final call post with the ones left.
Those unclaimed from that last post will either go to another agency or will go through a liquidation round.
Please don't post what kennels you donated. I honestly don't need to know that right now. ^^;
Thank you for making this place amazing. <3

- Waralz bids you hello, curious visitor!
Welcome to Pound of Hope, a character adoption agency where we accept all those looking for a good home, who were left here either because their owners couldn't give them the home they truly deserve, or because they have wandered into our midst. Below, you can see the creatures pining for love and a home to call their own. First, you will see those who are more common in pounds: canines, felines, and equines. As you move down the kennels, you'll come upon those who are less common, hybrids and mythical, rarer species and those who are supposedly extinct. All of them deserve homes. Will you take one of our amazing characters home with you today?

Rules for Adopters
- • Don't steal.
- Don't donate something that's not yours, nor use one of these characters without adopting it. We will report you to the mods, and blacklist you. There's no glory among thieves.
- Leave some for other people, please! Don't go for every character at once. Two forms are allowed for P kennels and one for the F kennels at the same time.
- Don't ask when the code drop is. Begging for a character, pulling a pity party, bullying, harassing and nagging about getting things done right here, right now will not be tolerated. Everything will be run in a timely manner, there's no reason to be impatient. Also, please be aware that this is not first-come, first-serve.
- We don't care if you wrote five or a hundred pages on Word. What matters is content. We have our own private critics to help you with this, just ask.
- Unless they want the donation returned to them, we will find a wonderful new home for the character. Please do not sell, trade or otherwise lose possession of your character!
- We've got a fair few. Don't want to listen to them? Don't come back.
- Any form not edited after two months with no winner for the character will be taken off of Octo's list. An extension of two weeks will be granted once upon request.
- We do not accept free lineart as art. Nor can you purchase art from others to put in your form.
- Long templates/memes from dA about your characters are not allowed; they are just too long and we feel that nothing of value is put down, anyway. You can discuss this (politely) with Octo, Tiikeria, or myself, but we all absolutely despise these templates.
- Whining if you do not alter your form after you have received critique may very well cast you in a bad light in the eyes of our crit staff, and they may not want to help you next time around.
- B's not paying them - this is all done out of their own free time, and the goodwill of their hearts. Crit staff are encouraged to go to B and/or Tiki if they have problems with users, and that may end up badly either in the eyes of POH or CS itself - board warnings may be handed out if someone is extremely rude or starts bullying our staff [thereby breaking CS rules].
- This is to allow the staff to finish critiques and allow those who asked in a timely manner get a little time to work on their forms. Please note that this is an automatic closing time - there may be no announcement at all!
Rules for Donors
- • We do not accept requests to be the judge of the donation, nor do we allow requests for the donator to give permission.
- It's too much of a hassle; when you give the character up for adoption, you have relinquished your rights to it, and entrust our hired judges to find a good home. If our judges need help, they will ask for it.
- If you think a design is awful, it might end up sitting here until kingdom come - and we don't have the space for that. :c So, to keep as many things going as possible, please don't throw random clashing, busy designs together for the sake of donating them. We reserve the right to not put up characters that we see as having little or no chance at finding a home. Also - be aware that while B is working the kennels, they will not accept donations hosted by Iaza, because of the deletion issues with the server. If you use Iaza for transparency, please save the PNG back onto your computer to upload elsewhere.
- Personality or mate preferences are good examples of this. However, we are fine with polite requests, such as "Please don't make this character this way". The only exceptions to this are Fursona/Fursona mate/Fursona relation restrictions.
