So I was in orchestra studying for the finals and I decided “hey why not waiste your time making this idea instead of studying!”
Anyways they are called African Locket Dogs and are mostly made of types of metals. This one that I drew is made of copper. Before a locket dog is born, the universe gives them a key to their soulmates heart and the soulmate has a key to their heart. After they are a few months old, they leave their mothers in search of the lock that their key belongs to. Once they find it and unlock each others soul, they are locked in a bond that can never be broken. If one of them happens to die whether it’s before or after, the locket dog will go into mourning for a year and their key at the end of their tail will begin to crumble until they die. If a Locket Dog is born without a soulmate or the soulmate was miscarriaged, then the Locket Dog will live with one of their siblings.
(Note: their keys aren’t like cartoon keys)
