"Oh, you pups don't know the oldies way of cutting a rug. It's nothing like the way it's done today."
~~She winks at SunFlash and continues dragging Killer along, rolling her eyes at his lame excuses.~~
"Oh, cut it out. It'll come back to you. Just follow the music."
~~She begins stepping in time to the beat, hoping Killer will just let the rhythm guide him.~~

SunFlash sighed, and dragged her paw down her muzzle "If that's the case, then I don't want to be an oldie. I'm not the biggest dance-dog. In both height, and personality"

Killer yelps in mid-yawn as he moves a certain way and his spine cracks loudly. With a stiffened expression, he glances at SunFlash.
"Don't ever get old if you can help it," he speaks through gritted teeth as he's more than positive he's just thrown his back out, "With age comes wisdom, yeah, but let's not forget the arthritis that tags along. Oh-ho..."

Actually, Border Collies are subject to arthritus and other joint problems when they are younger BIC-SunFlash sighed "Well, about 4 more years until I'm actually considered a senior. Maybe I can learn the wisdom stuff ahead of time"

OOC: Great Danes have major problems with hip dysplasia and arthritis, IRL, but medicines have come a long way for all dogs... there are alot of things on the market (I believe in herbs very much) to help alleviate and prevent joint stiffness... not much comfort if you have a dog that suffers with it, I know, but just thought I'd throw that in there... BIC: Hedge sits back on her haunches and observes her friends, both old and new... and she is thankful... for once, it seems everyone is getting along... "Hey SunFlash... crank it up a little louder for these old timers, will ya?" Laughs as she watches Kila manuever Killer effortlessly across the floor...

Bloat is another serious problem with Danes.German Shepherds are worse . They suffer from hip and elbow displasia, skin ailments, bloat, eye diseases, epilepsy, and heart defects . Border Collies suffer from joint problems and eye diseases such as PRA BIC- SunFlash shrugged "Ok, might as well" she started to turn up the volume

OOC- Greyhounds are prone to skin problems and bloat too. They're a breed at high risk for bloat and stomach rotation. BIC- As drowsy as he is, Killer is having a difficult time keeping in step with Kila and he has to keep shaking his head frequently in an effort to fight the affect of the sleeping pills. His back being thrown out is yet another thing that slows him down considerably."We really need to do this again sometime," he says to Kila, "When I'm not under the influence of sleeping pills and after I've worked out a bit to get myself in shape again."

OOC: Hey! This is fun! Trading what we know about different breeds... we should start an ADGTH vet, rescue and adoption service... Mind if I ask where everybody got their knowledge of this stuff? I learned stuff from my own dog and a great vet as well as working as a kennel helper at both a vet's office and a boarding kennel... how about you SunFlash? It's fun rping with you because you always maintain your dog status... I sometimes slip into a human status... oops!
BIC: Hedge taps her hind foot in time to the music and then decides she oughta go see if all the other dogs are having a good time... Yes, indeedy do! This may turn out to be the best party ever!!!!

*pats dog book*Oh ya, I have a tones of info. In it, I found something funny , and sad at the same time. On the site, it said that Killer might be a Saluki. Well, Salukis are prone to eye problems. I guess that is why Killer has glasses . I have more info on breeds. I could put up something for the breeds of ADGTH charactors(both in the movies, and the made up ones) in the Flea Bite Cafe. BIC- SunFlash lied down, putting her muzzle on her paws, yawning slightly "I'm a bit worn out at the momment"

OOC- Vet assistant experience as well, hehe. I also have a bunch of dog books. I didn't know Saluki's are prone to eye problems though. I did think that maybe Don Bluth made him at least part Saluki because they're sighthounds and it'd be a great spoof on the breed for Killer to have such poor eyesight, LOL! Thanks for sharin' that info, SunFlash! It kinda backs up my theory about Killer bein' Saluki-ish, hehe. *waits for Kila to post*

~~ooc~~ I don't know a whole lot about dog breeds and stuff but I know they're all furry, they all go to Heaven, and I love them! ~~bic~~ "What are you yapping about? You sound like a chihuahua trying to run off an intruder. I think your shape is just fine." ~~She winks at Hedge as she says that and continues moving to the music and bringing Killer with her, trying to guide him without getting stepped on. She looks up at the others and grins, beckoning them to join the dance with a wave of her paw.~~ "Come on you wall-flowers! Let's see some fancy footwork!"

OOC: My favorite dog is the great dane... I love all animals... ferrets, hamsters, lions, tigers, bears, dogs, cats, horses, cows, goats... (you name it) (I have a hard time with birds... in cages...) I'm not fanatical about animals, but I don't like seeing them abused.
BIC: "Way to go Kila!!!" Hedge shouts over the music... Pads over to sit by SunFlash... "Have you seen Charlie? As long as he doesn't start stirring stuff up, this party should be okay."

Dogs and wolves are my favourite. German Shepherds are my favourite ;D
BIC-
SunFlash looked around, and shrugged her shoulders "Nope, I don't think I've seen him in a while. I wonder where he is"

Killer blinks heavily and rapidly, willing them to stay open. He really isn't winning his battle though. He continues staggering around, trying to keep in step with his dance partner.
"No...no, no, seriously," he argues, never taking his sleepy gaze off his stumbling paws as he tries not to fall behind, "This isn't the sort of shape I used to be in, no. I...I used to be...well..."
He trails off as a yawn overwhelms him and he tries to stifle it to some extent with his forepaw.
