In a bit of a fix here. I've 24 hours to finish a painting for the (rather good and free) dystopian audiodrama Our Fair City.

Part of what I'm illustrating is a pack of "wolves" - though wolves in the sense of post-human feral dogs (so basically any kind of dog above medium size). I'm having some difficulty in finding enough royalty free stock images / images donated by friends of dogs running, eating and generally doing dog stuff to use as reference and help fill up the population.

As time is tight on this, it suddenly dawned on me that some of you on here are dog people (and thats not an insult), and may have some decent photos I can use. Even just a couple would help lift the strain. They don't even have to be great quality photos, but they DO have to be ones you own the rights to!

I can't give you anything in return right now as this is an unpaid comission, and OFC is a non-profit organisation.

Best I can do is say thanks.


EDIT: Problem solved, thanks to you all I've more than enough images to keep me going. Though I've no doubt we'll see some more before I;m done painting! :)
Thanks everyone!

Would be glad to help, but the dogs in my family are two Yorkies and a Papillon. You'd need a lot of mutations to make those terrifying.

Are you high!? The smaller the dog the scarier they are. Ever been attacked by a Yorkie? I'm guess yes, then you must know those little bastards are beyond relentless. I have a 70 pound bulldog and a 12 pound dachshund and to a man our guest are always more afraid of the dachshund.

Heheh!
Or just a mass of them yapping, crapping and generally being small dogs! Heheh!

Yeah, I was originally gonna include one or two, but the likelihood of them surviving as a breed in such a situation is pretty low considering they tend to be pampered little shits these days! Heheh!

Jack Russels maybe!

Mind grabbing me a couple of images of the bulldog then?

I would love too, BUT they are on another pc which is in the shop. That's why I was hesitant to mention anything because I feel kind of shitty about that.

I'd love to help but sadly all I could do would be putting socks on my ears and barking into my webcam.

No camera but I might have one on the fossil pc we use for reservations. Give me a bit to transfer it to disc.

True, Yorkies, and indeed all terriers, can savage the living fook out of you. But as the chimps says, it's hard to picture their traits lasting long in a feral breeding population. This is especially true as feral dogs all trend towards the "street dog phenotype" within a few generations of interbreeding.

However, the Papillon looks disturbingly like the alien from Angry Red Planet (well, his head at least). That creatures scares five kinds of poo out of me.

Good source material pups! They should be convertible to terrors. But the real ones I want to play with and wodgey-wodgey their jowls.
Can't help directly as I have no dog. And I am not sure to have understood which type of image you are looking for.

Anyway are you sure you can't find anything on the web? Here, for example...
The only photo I have that you might be able to use is of my boxer who's no longer with us. I wish I could post more but all I have is my min-pin acting very silly and not very feral at all.

Sadly no, those cost and are either terrible or nabbed from other sites (I know a few togs who've had issues with that site being unprofessional in the past). Cheers tho Herr Doktor!
