I thought it might be a fun idea for the people that have mutts to do a fake write up of what their breed standard would be, were they an actual breed.
For example; A Luna must have only one ear flopped, not both, nor may both be pricked. It must have extra jowls to drip drool with when drinking, and those jowls must be soft enough to the touch that you want to risk the drool anyway. Their coat must be speckled with brindle in such a way that it is either invisible, or they look dirty. Eyes must be particularly soft and pitiful in such a way that you forgive all transgressions instantly.
Lunas should be calmly friendly, neither shying away from a stranger nor knocking them over like a bowling pin. Due to this, their tails spin in a circular motion like a propeller as this is their only outlet for excitement. Lunas are particularly gentle with children and make great family companions.
Most importantly a Luna should have a thick, solid build and masculine features. This should ensure that all Lunas are presumed to be male, never female. Despite the fact that Lunas are heavier than they appear due to their dense frame, Lunas will always presume to be lap dogs, no matter whom they might be crushing.
Lunas are generally lazy dogs except between the hours of 7:30pm and 8:30pm. During this time they will run around in circles at top speed while growling and grunting as if possessed. This may be a dangerous time for smaller framed individuals, as a Luna often treats other objects much as a bull in a china shop would during this time. It is generally best to try to find a secluded corner and wait out this frenzy as Lunas have no traction on hardwood floors during this time and thus their trajectory can be unpredictable. Removing breakable objects is also advised.
Have fun everyone!
