Strangetown extras: Wheezy the puppy

[strangetomato]

Remember Wheezy? He's Nervous Subject's puppy, and he's been stuck in a weird ageless state, like Peter Pan, refusing to grow up. I couldn't have him staying as a puppy in the story any longer, and I needed to show him in the next chapter, so I aged him up with InSIM.

I'm not sure what I was expecting, exactly. You can never tell with sim puppies and kittens. They all look the same.




I do know that poodle was probably the very last thing I expected.




It seems a little fancy for Nervous. Also, Wheezy is supposed to be a stray. But I suppose it does work on at least one level. Nervous would enjoy styling his hair, just like he did with the mohawk.

And clearly, Nervous loves the silly thing. I don't have the heart to switch him for a new dog now. I'll have to make it work.




And really, how could you not love this special little creature? He's so adorable.

Bwahahaha! Before I saw the pics I guessed from your "not what I expected" that he turned into a poodle, lol. It really is a pretty dog, though! Big and muscular, not like a regular poodle.

Yeah, I think that's the only thing that might make it work. I mean maybe it's just a stray he styles like a poodle, lol. You could go as far as to substitute a black wolf for Wheezy at first, then show how Nervous styled the dog's hair into this wonderful poodle look. ;)

I like that he's a big dog. A guard dog might come in handy for Nervous, one of these days.

I thought about starting him off "normal" and then styling, but instead I just introduced him already styled. I figured, why not? It's easier, and Wheezy deserves to be special form day one.
