Leather Puppy Play Gear for Pups, Ponies and Handlers
Good pet play gear helps you get out of your head and into your role. Ours is made by hand from genuine cowhide in our own workshop, with padded insides where the leather touches the face and hands, adjustable laces and buckles for a close fit, and solid metal rings for a leash or lead. Everything is built to be moved in: crawled in, played in and worn for a whole pup night.

- Two-tone dog hood: black cowhide with two-tone dog-hood styling and adjustable straps.
- Full-face puppy hood: pointed ears, a moulded muzzle, a zip-open mouth and removable eye flaps, with rear lacing, a buckle strap and a front D-ring for a leash.
- Leather muzzle with mouth cup: a strapped muzzle that covers the mouth, for pups who need to stay quiet.

What Is Pup Play?
Pup play is a kind of role play where one person takes on the mindset of a playful dog, called a pup, and another often acts as their handler. For many pups it's less about sex and more about letting go: no words, no worries, just play, attention and praise. It grew up in the gay leather scene, and today you'll see pups of every gender and orientation at leather events, Pride and pup meet-ups. Some pups love to play in a group at a pup mosh, while others play only with a partner at home.
What Is Pony Play?
Pony play is pet play with a horse in mind. The pony wears a bridle or hood and is led, trained, shown or ridden in a playful way, while the trainer holds the lead. It's often more about discipline and display than the bouncy energy of pup play. Blinders, a mane and a lead strap help the pony stay in role and focused on the trainer's commands.
Building Your First Pup Kit
- Start with a hood. It's the piece that changes how you feel the moment it goes on.
- Add a collar. A collar and leash lets your handler lead and claim you.
- Put on paws. Paw mittens stop you using your fingers, which keeps you in pup space.
- Protect your knees. If you'll crawl, wear knee pads or play on soft flooring.
- Go further later. A pet crawler set is for experienced pups who want the full all-fours position.
Pup Hood Fit and Safety
A pup hood should feel snug and secure, never tight. Make sure the nose and mouth openings line up so breathing is easy, and open the zip mouth whenever your pup needs water. Hoods get warm, so take breaks during long or busy nights. With eye flaps closed, a pup can't see, so the handler must guide them. When crawling, change position often and keep scenes short to protect the knees and wrists.
How to Care for Pet Play Gear
Wipe the inside of hoods and mittens after every use with a damp cloth and a little mild soap, and let them dry fully before storing. Brush faux-fur manes gently. Condition the leather every few months. Store hoods stuffed with tissue or on a head form so the ears and muzzle keep their shape.
