Pawberry Pups Reloaded (Patreon)

They've changed a lot since their original concept. Except Soup, a character I mostly nailed on the first try. >:3 Shadow, the eldest of the pups, isn't shown because he already got a spotlight here. 

All the Pawberry pups are exactly the same age (29), but they insist on adhering to a dumb age-based hierarchy (even though they're only a few minutes older or younger than one another). Shadow is everyone's big brother, Summer insists she's the big sister and Skye is her bratty kid sister. Soup does not care. Snowball is technically the second youngest (and thus the "baby" brother), but the day any of his sibs try to lord their age/imaginary rank over him will be the day he cheerfully puts them in a strawberry barrel and kicks it down a hill.

As previously mentioned, Snowball is a double merle dog, which resulted in him being born deaf. Skye, and her entire family, are thus all very fluent in sign language. Snowball can speak, but mostly doesn't. His eyes are usually closed (think Brock from Pokemon), but he can see just fine. He's playful and surprisingly sarcastic, often teasing Shadow, Skye, and Summer, who often take themselves far too seriously, in his opinion. He and Soup are often together in the kitchen, with Snow baking fresh bread to pair with Soup's stews and soups. Soup is a supremely talented chef (and deeply beloved by the senior citizens at the nursing home they work at), and could probably successfully open a high-end restaurant, but prefers chilling in their dinky hometown, selling home-made strawberry pies at market and watching the leaves change color.
