When I was a kid, I loved pretending I was a dog. I'd run around and bark, pant, and snarl. My dad even had a name for my dog self - Keever. I grew out of the habit when I was about 10. (Oh yeah, there was that one time I acted like a dog with a friend....)
Sarge the pup is a 26-yr-old who still has fun in the kennel. I asked him to SPEAK about his lifestyle. Grab a bowl of kibble and learn a thing or two about his experience with puppy play. Woof!
What is your relationship status?
I am attached (or married if you care for that term) to my Owner. But W/we are an open relationship.
How long have you been into puppy play?
It's been almost 3 years since I got into pup play.
Did you have a dog growing up?
Yes, the family had a dog for a few years when I was younger.
As a kid, did you roleplay that you were a dog? What kind of games did you play as a kid?
No, I wasn't really into roleplay on anything, I was usually messing around in the garage taking stuff apart, putting it back together.
Do you have a memory that was a "trigger point" for you in shaping who you are today?
Not that I can recall at all.
Do you have a dog now?
Yes, Goddess (my Owner) got a little guy to keep Her company while I was away on Government service for a year.
Would you want to have a job in the pet industry?
I don't really think so, I am a mechanic by trade and I feel best when I'm working. I like what I do.
I maintain that humans are animals, but a lot of people want to distance themselves from that, do you embrace your inner animal?
Somewhat, I am a firm believer in the Native American tradition of a 'spirit animal'. And once in a awhile, I can feel 'him' scratching at my insides... But it takes a little bit to tap into that.
Are you sexually attracted to real dogs?
That's a difficult question to answer, really. Female dogs, I've never really thought about that. But I'm bi-curious, and interested about being fucked by a male dog. ('implied consent' would have to be in place.)
How did you meet your current partner? Did she know about your fetish when you met? Was she into it as well?
W/we actually met from a fetish website. And it was Her that introduced me, or should I say 'discovered' my inner beast. And She is into play as well, She is a kitten.
Where do you buy your collars, leashes, etc?
Most of the pup gear comes straight from the pet store. Other things from the pet store become modified into toys, IE rubber dog bone chew toy can become a sturdy bitgag, fitting of the situation. But other things can be found on fetish gear websites, like pup-faced hoods, or pup paw fist mitts. Out there, almost anything can be found eventually.
What kind of props do you like?
Well, I wear my collar everywhere 24/7, with the exception of work. Being it poses a safety hazard in my occupation, and it would also get very dirty, very quickly.
Do you have a vanilla day job?
Yes, I work as a Semi-truck and trailer mechanic.
Do you act vanilla out in public, with family, etc, and then when you're home do you assume your doggy identity?
Well, life dictates a lot. Goddess and I are D/s (Dominant/submissive) 24/7, and I'm sure my family knows. They know She works as a Pro-Domme. As much as I really like to lounge around, there are chores, errands, and other tasks. So pup play comes as times to relax is available.
Do you have a cage or kennel?
Yes, Goddess uses it for punishment if I've been bad.
Are you housebroken?
Of course, Goddess can't very well leash me outside here in the midwest all year long...LOL.
What type of canine activities do you enjoy?
I like to play and wrestle with my Goddess, other people, or pups. I play fetch until I'm worn out. But like most pups, lounging on a comfy spot usually takes the cake.
Do you get sexual gratification out of puppy play, or is it more a platonic fun outlet?
Oh hell yes, I definitely take on the persona of a horny pup quite well. Most of O/our fetish/kink friends know that my favorite game is 'Bury the Bone'.
Do you hump your Mistress' leg or do it doggy style?
No, Goddess would not find that behavior acceptable. But Doggy-style is indeed my strongest position;)
Do you engage in doggy bad habits like drooling, ripping things up, bark, smelling bad?
No, I'm a rather well behaved pup. Fairly mild mannered, however very aware and extremely protective. But still very well tempered too.
Do you get disciplined when you misbehave?
Yes, Goddess will strike me with whatever is available, and I can be sent to my cage.
Do you wear clothes or a costume when you are a pup?
Sometimes I wear one of my pup hoods, but not always. It will depend alot on the atmosphere around me, and what ideas may be involved in the play.
Do you like for others to pretend they are a dog as well?
I actually know and interact with some other fetish friends that are pups or kitties (Goddess is a kittie Herself).
So I guess dogs and cats DO get along.
For sure!
Have you ever had fleas?
Oh heavens no, proper bathing and well being are definitely a high priority.
Do you chew on bones or eat dogfood?
I have a milkbone dog treat every so often.
Do you ever play that your Mistress is a vet?
Again, I know fetish friends that W/we interact with, one of whom takes pleasure in medical play and being the 'vet'.
Are there any local puppy play groups, do you ever have parties or dog shows?
There are a few friends and I that are trying to organize a pup event for Chicago, since there are so many other event and conventions that take place here. And there is a pup group that is just starting to take root.
Can you recommend any online resources for others interested in puppy play?
FetLife has lots of groups. I also like The Doghouse, a club for pansexual boy dogs and bitches.

I was lucky enough to meet Sarge and his owner earlier this year. They're really sweet people and I'm glad to see them here on TBK! ^_^
A Girl
Very nice and interesting! Cant say I met a puppy before...plenty of kitties though.
The Beautiful Kind
I'll bet kitties are pretty popular, horsies too. Doggies sound like fun. Wonder if there are any pig or goat people? Or someone who is into armadilloplay...

Uh... whoa. And, why? But... huh
