Abstract in brief
The study surveyed 733 pup play participants mainly from the US, revealing demographics, social and sexual engagement, and its connection to identity and mental health, noting that participants often used unique pup names and dog breeds to express individuality.
Most participants owned gear for pup play, with younger individuals more likely to identify as pups and report mental health benefits, suggesting pup play may positively impact mental well-being.
The research confirms that pup play is both a kink activity and a social role, emphasizing the need for further studies to explore its effects and address current limitations in understanding this international community.]
