Cenaran hounds are proto-whales. The initial motivation to domesticate them was their proficiency in water - the wild proto-hounds were capable of moving in water in ways that stickfigures cannot. Sticks sink like rocks!

There was motivation to obtain an efficient way of collecting oceanic resources, and these whales happened to show off that they're really good at catching fish and shellfish, and that they can be trained to fetch other resources [such as aquatic plants, loose minerals, pieces of shipwrecks etc].

Nowadays most Cenaran hounds are bred to be primarily land-based animals, but there are heritage breeds that love water and are still trained to swim in it. Similarly to earth dogs, hounds are social animals and do well in groups.

Their noises are far more clicky and squealy than dogs. Think dolphin, or in that vein

another great commission prompt from Sneakteeth requesting some of my worm vampires and Hounds interrupting each other's dinner plans! This one was a long while coming, but I really enjoyed it. I plan to scan them at a better resolution once I get my scanner up and running again, because they are 100% traditional sketchbook pages done with watercolor and pencils c:
