I was looking at the Blogs and noticed the lack of a blog on pup language.
Soooo... I wanted to start the ball rolling:
Ball?! WHERE!?
Hood:/Muzzle: Gear worn on the head that pups the human into the pup mindspace. Usually made out of neoprene or leather.
Collar: Usually signifies that a pup is taken or has a handler/trainer
Mitts/Knee Pads/Paws: Padded and worn on the hands and knees to help with being on all fours.
Pack: A group of pups and handlers
Scratches/Pets: Who doesn’t like being pet and have their back scratched? *wags tail* Always ask a pup/handler before you pet them.
Treat: “Who’s been a good boy?” Often little snacks given as a treat to pups for doing something good.
Tail: Come as insertable or on-belt.*wags wags*
Toys: Any other toy used to play with a pup (sexual or non-sexual)
Flag/Hanky: A flag or hanky with pups, bones or paws helps get the message across that you're into pup play (specially when not wearing a hood/muzzle). Also, certain colors may mean different things.
Mosh: When a whole group of puppies get together and play.
ROLES:
Pups/Puppy: Someone who identifies with that headspace. They are more about the canine head space than the physical, though physical aspects may and do come into it as well.
Dog: Someone who identifies more with the obedient side and less playful side.
Dogboy/Puppyboy: Someone who identifies as both a puppy and as a boy. A boy is someone who is a bit more submissive.
Alphas: Are the more dominating pups. They will pose themselves as pack leaders, but will often also look after the pups in their pack.
Beta: Any pup who is submissive to their Alpha
Omega: The most submissive role in a pack structure
Stray/Uncollared: A pup who is not wearing a collar,
Slavepup: Someone who is into very intense play, and they are pretty much owned by their handler.
Devildog: Someone who was or is in the military.
Pigpup: Is into grungeplay.
Service dog: Someone who is looking to make others very happy with their service.
Handlers: Anyone the takes care of a pup. The one holding the leash or controls the pup.
Trainers: Someone who takes in puppies and trains them.
Master/Mistress: Someone generally very dominant.
Daddy/Mommy: It’s more of a family and loving relationship.
I will admit I am not perfect, and some definitions might not be on-point, but if you want to add something to the list or think something is not right, comment about it bellow :)
