Betty asks…

Does this virtual Harlequin Great Dane look close to the real thing?

I made a virtual Harlequin Great Dane upon request-it was made in sims 3 pets. The reason I posted this question in the dog section-is because I feel that those who know dogs may be able to give me more helpful advice and feedback on the dog. This is my first time making a dog in the game, a custom one, so I’m unsure. I made the dog based off of a few pictures I saw online and from reading the ‘standard’ on the breed for this coat type.

Anyway, here are screen shots of it:

I wanted to make the dog with floppy ears and a long tail but it looked strange in the game and I could only do so much customization to it. So unfortunately I left it with pointy ears and short tail :/

I’d appreciate it if anyone could give me feedback on the dog-if there are any changes you think should be made to make it more ‘realistic’ that would be very much appreciated. Thank you in advance!
Thanks all for the feedback! I’ll make sure to fix the tail and make it long-I have no clue why I left it cropped, ha.

@Launi-I’ll try and make an American Pit bull Terrier the next chance I get ^.^
