FAQ - last updated 4/16/26

How can I support you?

Visit my pixel art commission page to pixelate your favourite horsie!

Can I send an ask?

Yes, right now I just have one request though. Please do not send me asks with stories about or pictures of your now passed animals.

Pronouns?

He/him, please don't call me a dog mom

The rest of the FAQ is under the cut

Can I DM you?

Unless it's extremely urgent please go through my askbox.

Where else can I find King?

I have a bluesky. Right now I'm not interested in being active on any other platforms. I post on bluesky sometimes but it is mostly just a backup in case Tumblr catches on fire.

Is King old or does he just look like that?

As far as I know he's always looked kinda old. He is currently 8 years old. I don't know his exact birthday so he celebrates his birthday alongside all of the northern hemisphere thoroughbreds.

What kind of dog is King?

According to his breeder he is a long haired Chihuahua. I went into more detail here about my opinions. Tdlr: I say long hair Chihuahua out of convenience and because he has at least a very high % of chi in him.

I wanted to use what ‘reach’ I may have here to share the Carolina Wildlife Center’s urgent plea for donations. If they are unable to raise $75,000 to cover ongoing and future care of their wildlife patients, the center will have to close July 20th, 2026. The services provided by CWC to the community are incredibly valuable, and without them, many wild animals will suffer without the care they need.

Link to donate

[todaysbird]

CWC has officially surpassed their goal in one day and can remain open!! Thank you to everyone who pitched in, shared, offered commissions for donations or otherwise gave your time & energy to support this organization.

it’s very simple. either you respect chihuahuas or i kill you

Sometimes King doesn't want to get out of his cozy palace to go pee. So we must chant his name while holding the door open for his majesty

It works

I wish I was as delighted about running errands as he is

The face of a man who is ready to go the fuck home. He's had his fun, he's now decided that it is old man bedtime and we aren't moving unless it's towards the exit

I woke up this morning to Jester laying on my chest and purring loudly.

I think she got on me while I was having nightmares. I remember my dreams going from very dark and scary to weirdly mundane during the night. I've never ever seen her do this

[king-the-pathetic]

artfight attack for @coyoteofthewest can you find the fish?

[king-the-pathetic]

They're so snuggly in there. I'm envious of King's comfort

[king-the-pathetic]

Just heard a small thunk followed by a sneeze and wet nasty mouth sounds. He fell asleep and rolled off of the pillow lol

The ewe, Ripley, that was dumped on us earlier this year almost looks like she has an udder forming..

Not sure if I do or don't hope she's pregnant. If she is then I suppose it would make her less of a freeloader this summer. However I'm not certain who the father would be. Due to fencing issues she was briefly with the ram she arrived with and then with our ram, Scott. Regardless, she and whatever she may or may not pop out will be culled. She has terrible hooves and I suspect she was a bottle baby

One of the many reasons that I dislike fireworks. I'm still finding the casings in the pasture almost two weeks later

Was sorta having a panic attack then I looked over at him trying to wriggle around cutely to solicit attention and it half snapped me out of it. Never underestimate the power of a cute wriggle
