This Saturday

Pup Palace

Saturday 7th November 1PM - 5PM Venue: The Palace Location: Bristol Cost: FREE (mostly)

We invite you to join us at a new pup play event in the heart of Bristol. This particular event is being held during the UK Leather Pride weekend, but if there's enough demand they might make it a regular event!

We will be there with our regular petting zoo, and (while stocks last), giving out our special new dog tags to Puppy Pride members for free.

Please note, this is a male only event!

Pups on TV!

Firecracker Films are working alongside Puppy Pride to produce a film about the escapist world of puppy play.

Human Pups (working title) will be a single film for Channel 4 examining the growing puppy play scene in the UK. It will explore the community’s desire to dress up and partake in role-play. The film will be an honest, revealing and warm look at the world and will tell both pups and handlers stories in a non-judgemental way.

They would like to speak to you (discreetly) about your experiences as part of their research. If you are interested in the film, be it anonymously or otherwise, please get in touch and they can give you more information:
