Just watched the whole series of Game Of Thrones. Loved it. Pissed about Sandor Clegane. SUPER pissed about Sandor Clegane.

Well, for me it's about the dynamic. Sansa at the start of the books is very different from Sansa from the spoiler chapters and i think Sandor is one of the main catalysts of that change.

Firstly, Sandor is the first person who didn't try to sugarcoat the world for her wile meaning no harm (well you know what i mean). It's because of him she starts to realize that beauty is not about the looks, and starts to see the world as it is instead of as it is in the songs.

Secondly, it fascinates me how Sandor sees himself in her. Before the Mountain broke him he was a lot like Sansa (at least it's implied), so the lack of sugarcoating stems from that. His crudeness is a way to protect her (from his point of view).

She also has an influence on him. The whole ark with Arya wouldn't happen otherwise.

For me the core of their relationship is the determination to make the other better in their own ways. In which they succeed!

Yes the age difference is questionable (to put it lightly) but Sandor is not in his thirties (he's about 26 which isn't better but still) and he is at heart that same knight from the songs — he just happens to be broken. But (for me at least) romance isn't always about sex. And true love is about making each other better. So i guess i ship them because i really want them to meet again. I feel like their journey together isn't finished.

Shipping them just because you want them to smash is creepy, but for me ASOIAF was never about sex or even violence. It about character study. GRRM the way i see it is interested in finding "the true Knight" And Sansa/Sandor dynamic is one way to find it.

I hope i managed to convey my thoughts correctly, eng in not my native language and it was really hard writing :_)

I'm genuinly curious why people ship sansan because sandor clegane is a man almost in his thirties and sansa is like 11 when they first meet....this is just creepy to ship

Deaf dog training log: part 4

Sandor is improving heaps on “Stay”

She used to move as soon as she lost sight of me, but now she can wait a bit for me to pop up again. Gonna keep practicing distance and losing sight

Another clip from yesterday I forgot to post: Sandor is actively looking at me when doing “stay”, exactly what I want her to do

Deaf dog training log: part 3

Yesterday’s training on “Stay” at dinnertime because she’s old so she’ll usually just not move anyway. the beagle in her wants to fossick around for food so now I can test if she’s actually listening instead of being old.

She’s very hard to get the attention of when she’s fossicking! I’ll need to practice “Look at me” with distractions

Deaf dog training log: part 2

Sandor is getting the hang of sign commands very quickly, although I think it’s because she’s already trained and just learning new prompts for the same tricks. The only new thing I’ve taught her is “Look at me” by tapping my nose a few times in a row and waiting for her to make eye contact.

Here’s a video of her doing “Come here” (me patting my hip/thigh) and “Sit” (pointing index finger up (you can’t really see the first time) with each correct action getting some “Shine on shine on” and scritches

Deaf dog training log: part 1

I’m petsitting/housesitting for my aunt and her dog has gone entirely deaf in her old age so I’m gonna try teach her sign commands

First I am establishing a reward signal, and I have picked “shine on shine on” from watching Ms Frazzled videos on Facebook (I wiggle my fingers). She is not a dog trainer btw she does satire videos about gentle-parenting entitled adults. Anyway every time I give Sandor scritches I smile and do Shine at her to establish the hand signal as a reward because she can’t hear clicker noises. Once she catches on I will teach her commands.

Also here’s your dog tax
