Board of Representatives

The Home for Lost Pups is a different kind of social club. We are doing our best to be as inclusive as possible for our membership, and for us, that means we need to understand who you are, for real.

Other social clubs elect a "Board of Directors" to positions of power and it often turns out that those in charge all have the same point of view and they might even all look the same. One of the things that makes humanpup play so great is it's openness for all types of people, therefore we feel that we needed a board that represents all types of people.

HLP has outlined 11 "Board of Representatives" (BOR) positions. They are as follows:
  1. 18-20 year old Representative (pup or handler)
  2. 21-25 year old Representative (pup or handler)
  3. POC Representative (any age)
  4. Trans Representative (any age)
  5. BDSM Representative (several years experience required)
  6. Furry Representative (several years experience required)
  7. Cis Female Representative (any age, currently vacant)
  8. Bear Representative (any age, currently vacant)
  9. Leather Representative (any age, currently vacant)
  10. Rubber Representative (any age, currently vacant)
  11. Asexual Representative (any age, currently vacant)

The 18-20 and 21-25 Rep positions exist so we can have the input from that age group. They will remind us what younger ideals were like before we got old and jaded (and wise about the world). Likewise, the older BOR members would be able to offer the younger reps a forward view of life that could then be shared back out to that younger part of our NJ area community.

21-25 yo Rep

Board of RepresentativesPup Grapple here!

I’ve lived in New Jersey pretty much my whole life, but I now spend a lot of my time in DC for college. I’ve been kinky pretty much my whole life. I remember being 12, a few months after realizing that I was into guys, and watching a twink get pretty brutally spanked. I was immediately in love.

Tumblr is what introduced me to pup play, and I joined the pup community on my 18th birthday. Since then I’ve gotten to live out multiple fantasies and I’ve met so many wonderful pups whom I have the privilege of calling my friends.

I’m a verse/switch pup. Most of my experience is as a sub, but I have some friends who are helping me explore my dom side more and I’m truly grateful for that. My favorite kink is still the first one that I found, so I’m always up for some fun impact play.

I love meeting new pups and making new friends, and I’m happy to help in any way you may need. So feel free to message me if you need any help, or if you’re just bored and want to talk!

18-20 yo Rep

This ain’t no kalamata, this is Olive! The 18-20 BOR Representative.

I first got into pup play through twitter and through quarantine and got invited with HLP in February 2021.

I am a sub omega pup that flags hunter green and grey and loves to receive attention. I chose the name Olive because its non binary, my favorite color, and I wanna be stuffed… with blue cheese.

The reason why I love pup play is the psychological headspace and working towards goals.

POC Rep

Board of RepresentativesHello! Pup Bard at your service!

I’ve lived in New York City most of my life, but left the big city for a career change, and ended up moving out to South Jersey. During that transition, I found the world of pup play, and things haven’t been the same since. I’m relatively new to the world of kink, but I love learning about the all of the fun and interesting ways people can live out their fantasies. I’ve been in the pup scene for 2 years going on strong!

Personally, I’m a big fan of being a pup! Being able to get away from work, bills and other human worries and do nothing but romp around, wrestle and getting pet is pretty awesome. I’m also pretty into the more sexual bits of pup play, and usually consider myself more of a sub. Being able to trust someone to let go to is a pretty freeing experience, but of course trust is a two way street. A person I can trust in that position is a rare kind of friend, and it’s an experience that is especially rewarding when done right. I also make small forays into being more dominant, but subbing is more of a default for me.

In terms of my other interests, I have a growing passion for bondage, both sexually and technically. There is something beautifully artistic about bondage that is fun to both look at and participate in. I’m also into a wide variety of toys, and I’d like to try as many new things as possible. Sexually, I’m usually a top, which puts me in the interesting conundrum of being more submissive and a top. I try my best to stay flexible and learn as many new things as I can.

I’m relatively new in the community, but I like to try to and make sure everyone gets a warm welcome and feels included in it. I love learning about people’s different ideas about what pup play is and can be, learning about dynamics of pup relationships of all kinds, and in general gleaming insights from each of the people I meet in my interactions in the community. I want to do my part to help people come to learn more about themselves and others, so I always welcome a good conversation about any topic, sexual or not. I look forward to meeting and learning about everyone I can, so feel free to reach out!


Trans Rep

Board of RepresentativesWhen you’re good to Mama, Mama’s good to you!

I got my start at a very young age as a professional Dominatrix. As time went on I discovered that I prefer to be dominated rather doing the domination. Despite having been through some traumatic experiences, I have never shied away from the scene. I walked away from it for a long time due to every guy I talked to wanting me to dominate them but recently came back with a vengeance.

Everyone from our diverse Board of Representatives brings something unique to the table. As someone who has been the victim of sexual assault, homeless, been to war and seen death first hand to name a few, I bring a unique point of view on life and can help counsel from a rare place few people can ever truly say. I give my advice from experience. As a medical professional and small business owner, I have seen my fair share of disaster and strife. I’m here when no one else is. If you need me, reach out to me. It’s rare for me not to answer! And as a Latina, don’t ever mess with Mama’s babies, or else the chancla comes out!

BDSM Rep

Board of RepresentativesMaster Alex/Pup Sniff

Born and raised in Queens, New York, moved to New Jersey when I was 30.

I've been into Bondage since before Kindergarten, tying up my neighborhood friends at least a few times a week. BDSM has become my passion, and not one waking minute goes by without me having at least one thought about it.

So as a child I was mostly a top, in my teens and 20s I became a bottom for the most part. In my 30s and 40s I experienced a natural progression of being a Bondage Top, and now I am mostly a Top.

A few years ago, at MAL, I put on a Puppy Hood; mostly out if curiosity. Instantly I knew this is what I longed for. Since that moment I have been a puppy, with a new mission in mind. It has ecome my ultimate pleasure in becoming a Puppy Bondage Master. I have a reputation of being a very gentle top, and so it has been a perfect transition, since many puppies are bondage virgins. My gentle approach is exactly what novices are looking for, and in the end it makes for the most perfect scene for both the puppy and myself.

My favorite medium is shrink wrap covered with duct tape, but I am well versed in all forms of bondage, including leather, rope, E-Stim, etc, etc. During my bondage sessions I love to apply a gentle edging lasting for a few minutes to as long as the bottom desires. I've had sessions last for over two hours. I guess many would consider me the ultimate service top.

I've been a member of the New York Bondage Club for decades, and have been a member of DELTA for the last 14 years. I have made a great many contacts and friends in both organizations, which has enriched my Bondage experience both in practice and knowledge.

Looking forward to meeting new puppies, and teaching them the ropes, so to speak. Let me help you, find yourself!


Furry Rep

Hi, I'm Badger!

I've been a furry attending cons and meets since 2006. Lived all my life in NJ with a small stop in PA for college. I discovered pups during through the furry fandom and have been active in the HLP community since at 2017.

A lot of my life has revolved around the furry fandom and its people. I'm glad to be branching out lately and the pups are very welcoming. I keep telling them they all count as furries but no one believes me uwu

I've modded in a couple small furry chats during the years and I have enjoyed helping the two communities find interests in one another. See you guys at Gunnison Beach!!

HLP Alpha

Kabous Pup humanpupMatt Redding is lovingly knows as Kabous Pup. He is the International Geared Up Pup 2018.

Kabous lived a quiet life at home with his handler for more than 10 years, and then in 2014 they discovered that puppy play was a legitimate fetish. Suddenly, they no longer had to be embarrassed by the pup antics they did at home alone together. In 2015, Kabous has been promoting humanpup play and trying to drag more puppies out of their hidden kennels.

Being a humanpup is how Matt unwinds from the stresses of being the workday boss. Kabous shares his glass-half-full point of view all the time in hopes to inspire other pups to overcome their own personal demons.

Kabous was honored to judge several puppy title contests around the world and participate in several other fetish title holder events, and is an active collaborator with contest producers and title holders worldwide.

Kabous is very open to the fact that terrycloth hanky and white + polka dots hanky are his favorite flagging colors. He refers to himself the #ResponsibleSlut and continually talks openly about sex positivity, STI testing, and PrEP while also sharing photos of his random play dates.

He's the host of the monthly HLP Member parties in NJ which routinely have 20 to 25 members and guest traveling in from all over world and the USA. Everyone's town names are posted on the walls, and they sign a guest book, for all future attendees to see.

Kabous hopes to inspire all puppies to have safe fun at their local bars or out in public; just make sure to learn how to make a good first impression and ease people into the idea of puppy play.

Prior to HLP, Kabous served on the board of NJ-PAH as First Pup. He also had memberships with NYC-PAH and ECKC.

Kabous is the founder of the Home for Lost Pups (HLP), and serves as the Community Alpha for HLP, or simply the "HLP Alpha."
