Pup Play - Tumblr Posts
So if you’re not aware, furries have been getting into pup play in recent years, and sometimes they commission art of their characters wearing pup hoods. Which presents a problem of, where do the ears go? Normally they are drawn poking through holes in the hood, and I always think it is cute and silly.
This was my attempt at making that physical. Roughly mimicked the standard hood pattern in leather with laces up the back, very simple detailing. (I liked that nose though.)
Ears by a local friend who goes by Puff.
This one sold at Anthro New England this last weekend. I’m likely to try refining the concept and making another in the future, we shall see.
Come on in. The water's fine. Don't worry. He'll only bite once.
Made of leather! I designed it in 3D, laser cut the pieces, dye them with a subtle gradient of blues, form them to shape, rivet them together, and finish it with a glossy top coat for a watery sheen.
The proportions of this mask are optimized for excellent vision, with the eye holes resting close over the wearer's eyes. Ventilation is through the mouth. The sides of the head are shaped to give the ears ample room. It laces up the back, with the fin splitting open when donning and closing up to conceal the laces when tightened.
I am finally ready to post this up for sale! It is available over on my Etsy: https://www.etsy.com/listing/1251970940/shark-hood
I’m hoping I get to make more of these in other colors in the coming months.
Choke chain collar! Go on. Give it a tug. Remind your pet who's in charge.
I wanted a collar suitable for long-term wear, but I don’t like the aesthetic of having a lock hanging on your neck. This was my solution! The chain slides real nice when you pull on it, and it doesn’t raise too many eyebrows out in the real world.
One of the O-rings opens with set screws for semi-permanent wear; or it can be made with a spring-opening carabiner for quick access. I’ve worn one of these 24/7 for about 3 years now, to make sure that it was safe before I offered it for sale.
They are available on my Etsy! Here you go: https://www.etsy.com/listing/1223548670/choke-chain-collar
Stainless steel rings woven together in a chainmail pattern, with nickel-plated O-rings. I’m considering stocking this size of rings in colored anodized aluminum, let me know if that would be tempting for you.
This guy sold within 6 hours of my posting it, so that was nice. Here’s some last photos of it from before I shipped it out. These photos show the gradient from darker to lighter on the underbelly a bit better.
I’m planning on making more of these, maybe this month. If you’d be interested in commissioning one, maybe with a more out-there color pallet, drop me a note!

Made a new dragon muzzle mask! I used a new green dye on this one, and for the first time I am Extremely pleased with it.
I've put it up on my Etsy! This one is available for immediate shipping, but as usual I can also do other color combinations made-to-order.
Shipped out this stainless steel choke collar today!
Also made one with some colored anodized aluminum I (relatively) recently got. Black and blue with a red tag, to match the leather/pup pride flag. I'll be adding color options to the listing once I get more examples made.
You can get one for yourself (or your unruly pet) over on my Etsy! If you'd like one with colors, just drop me a note when ordering.
These pups are eager to get out and play, whether that's chasing balls at the beach, or chasing tail at the club. If you're looking to adopt, make sure you've got the energy to match.
Made these two pup muzzles before ANE, one with a sea green gradient, the other with a synthwave sunset. I hadn't really intended them to go together, but after finishing them, I couldn't help but think of them as a pair.
They're now available for immediate adoption, or custom orders, over on my Etsy shop!
Watch out, there's sharks in those waters.
I made this second copy of my shark hood in time for ANE earlier this year, and here I finally am posting it up for sale! The first one I made I went for a slight pearlescent finish, which turned out not to show up that well, so this time I dropped it and just kept it blue. It's also a bit darker this time, and I think the gradient to a lighter underside went quite well!
This beast is ready to join you for a dip, if you're brave enough:
I have been really puppy brained lately,.. Like set me in front of a TV, put on a movie or let me play my video games, occasionally check up on me, say I'm being a good boy for being well behaved and well maintained, change my diaper if I need it, give me a treat for not making it tedious for you, cuddle me on the couch after supper time and when I start nodding off, lead me to bed, tuck me in and tell me I was such a good puppy for you with a gentle tug on my collar and kiss on my forehead.
Like, damn.. the craving is strong.
Yaa more pride art lets goo
Yeahh we got. Lavender dogthing with the original gay pride flag and leather pride And More lets goo
Okay ramble under here
Honestly this is mostly just centered around a mutual frustration I have with both the gay and furry communities-
You guys know our first communities formed in kink and fetish groups right? You know that right?
Like yes of course queer ppl been around longer than that but the first real places we had to go where we could reliably meet up and hook up and all that were in kink spaces.
The first fursuiter was a man named Robert Hill, also known as Hilda the Bambioid. Hilda was a sexy Dominatrix Deer character! It was a sex thing from the start. Some of the oldest furry artists (meaning furry as a subculture! Not just anthropomorphic character. Theres a different and I recommend you learn it. Mickey Mouse is not a furry.) were making fetish content from the word go.
Sexuality has always been a big part of both the queer community and the furry community
So WHY am I seeing so many people downplay it and insist that "Only Freaks Care About That " and "REAL members of the community care more about the wholesome side-"
WHY am I seeing y'all shame queer people (especially trans women) for existing as sexual beings? WHY am I seeing y'all pin furry NSFW as something evil? WHY am I seeing this huge push back against kink and sex-positivity? WHY am I seeing purity culture being pushed in some of the most (as we've been described by outsiders)"impure" communities?
A trans woman will simply elude to the fact that she experiences sexual attraction and you guys jump at her throat for it. Y'all would NOT have survived the leather bars of the 70's and 80s. Weak ass generation. Y'all claim to know our history but your knowledge of our history seems to start and end with stonewall. You don't know shit about our history, you don't know our iconography, you don't know about the Lavender Menace, you don't know about the Hanky Code, you don't know about our first communities.
While you're harassing people on the internet over the most useless of queer discourse- the cishets are trying to take away our rights. They don't CARE about us. They don't care how squeaky clean and digestible we are to them. They want us eradicated because we are an easy target and you're LETTING IT HAPPEN.
A good portion of today's queer discourse was started by Trolls and TERFS for the specific purpose of causing upset in the community and you guys choose to perpetuate it without considering who you're hurting by doing so. Masc lesbians are a part of your history. Transexuals are a part of your history. Drag is a part of your history. Kink is a part of your history. You have to respect it, even if you don't like or understand it.
Just. Stop trying to sanitize queerness. Stop trying to sanitize the furry community. Stop trying to appeal to the cishets and normies. Stop hurting your queer siblings in the name of a fight that was started by a terf who would just as easily call you a slur.
All you're doing is erasing our history.
one of my favorite pieces to date…. queerness and kink is beautiful and sexy and full of love!!!!! & it’s been wonderful to share that joy with the people i love, and to have them share it with me.
also god is a trans guy w top surgery scars!!!! which i think is pretty neat :)
happy pride!!!
