Strangetown extras: Wheezy the puppy

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.

I've had him before, the last time before I messed up my 'hood.
The funniest thing was I got him for the Grunt brothers. Military family, all guys, gave him a really macho-type name (I can't remember now what it was) and he grew up....into that. o.O So not what I was expecting.
Maybe you could find some way to style his hair differently. Nervous would certainly love that.
And he could still be a stray. Someone who didn't like poodles tossed him out when his pure bred Fifi got jumped by some mangy no-breed dog one day. After all, he really is a bit chunky for a real poodle. It could work.

You had the exact same one? *snicker* Well, I suppose it makes sense, since I just ordered him from the pet adoption service. The thought of his with the Grunts is even funnier, really.

I'm going to make him work. I figure he's just a big brute of a dog that Nervous decided to style like a poodle, because he's odd like that. Nervous is a strange one anyway, so I think it works.
