Hi, you've reached Xan - you can leave a message in the ask box about anything and everything; but especially if it's about dogs. :)
Speaking of dogs (and cats), these are my girls and my boy (surprise - the felines have multipled); at some point I'll probably flood people's feed with new puppy content when I invest in a second dog, but for now, I just have the one dog and one cat.
.
This is Freyja, (dob: 20/03/2021), a black Labrador Retriever, who I have been training to compete in gundog field trials and agility competitions (we have a sideblog about it: @driven-2fetch):
And this is Ishtar, Queen of All She Surveys, (dob: 16/04/2018), a domestic medium-haired cat; who is leash and harness trained, hates other cats, lords herself above the dogs, and is all-round the best and most darling creature to exist:
And then there's the baby of the family:
Meet Merlin, he of the spectacular whiskers. DOB: 07/01/2023. Merlin is a breeder cat, is uniquely, unexpectedly, and robustly independant, confident, and a bit of a cheeky bastard. Ware, where you step, for this walking lynx-eared rug will try to trip you up like he's about to cash in on your life insurance plan. The only reason this man is not in gaol yet is because he lacks the life experience to make something properly deadly. With time, effort, and continued practice, I expect Merlin to end up on ASIOs most wanted list.
Bonus baby pictures of the two I actually have baby-baby photos of:

Side note:
Yes I write fanfic, sometimes. Haven't for ages, I've been insanely busy with literally everything. However, if you have questions about any of that either via fanfic.net (have not posted there in a decade) or AO3 (been... uh like 4 maybe 5 years now, yikes), please shoot an ask.
Always happy to talk fandom wank with people. :)
even if it's just me apologising for like 20 paragraphs for not updating my 10,000 wips, i am so so sorry about omg i know im the worst
I also write my own original material, which is partially why I've not written fanfic.
