Hourglass Dog
The Hourglass Dogs are a species named after a particular dog of the same name who was sold at the auction Ena and Moony went to in Auction Day. The Headtombs place various bids on the dog, including 50 chocolates, 400 chocolates,[1] and 1 fatty catty. It is unknown if the Hourglass Dog ended up being sold to anyone, as rain-rocks cut the auction short.
Appearance
The Hourglass Dogs appear as 3D-rendered yellow dogs that are stylized in poor resolution. They have short, stubby legs and tails, two ellipse eyes jutting out of their heads, and a tongue hanging from their mouths with black outlining a crease in the center.
Biography
In Auction Day, one of the Hourglass Dogs had been seemingly inserted into an hourglass and sold as an item at an auction. It is unknown if the dog and the hourglass are consequently one object or two individual objects. At the end of the episode, Ena (in her sad form) vomits static that turns into a dog identical to the one present in the hourglass. However, the dog she vomits is a different dog.[2]
As seen in Temptation Stairway, numerous Hourglass Dogs are tended to by The Shepherd in the Hourglass Meadow Dog Conservatory, where they are seen flying around and playing. One is even held by The Shepherd.
