WIN-PAH’s Core Tenets

These are our guiding star and the values the club was founded with

We believe that;

• Puppy play, while similar to other forms of human-animal role-play, is a unique fetish experience that deserves specific focus.
• Those engaged in puppy play have specific play, emotional, and safety needs that are different from other types of human pets.
• Puppy play is firmly connected to and a part of the greater kink and fetish community.
• While sex is not required in order to engage in puppy play, it is important to respect the inherently sexual origins of this style of play.
• Puppy/Dog headspace is an integral part of puppy play, and its presence is a core part of the puppy play experience.
• Puppy fetish gear, while fun and possibly helpful, is never required.
  • Gear should not be used to gate-keep puppy play.
  • Gear should not be the sole manifestation of one’s puppy identity.
• Being a puppy does not imply any specific D/s or sexual role.
• Puppy play is for people of all genders and orientations.
• Consent is not only sexy, it is mandatory.
• As a community we should strive to interact with each other with respect.
  • Homophobia, transphobia, racism, misogyny, and all other forms of bigotry have no place in WIN-PAH, puppy play, or our wider community.
• Communities have space for multiple groups which may have broad or narrow focuses.
• Community groups can coexist, support, and uplift each other for the greater good of the community.
