Pup Perfect

Explore the world of human Pups, a subculture that evolved from the leather community. Interviews with over a dozen Pups reveal that Pup Play is a way of embodying the spirit of a dog, both physically and mentally. Pup Play is more than just a sexual fetish – it provides a way for individuals to escape the stresses of everyday life and embrace a simpler, more carefree existence. Our dogumentary sheds light on this unique lifestyle along with the stigmas and the freedoms attached to it.
