About the Puppy Play Negotiation Form
You are looking at the first draft of the Puppy Play Negotiation Form. The hope is that this form can be used as a tool by all puppies and trainers to aid in communicating desires and expectations. Because this is intended to help all puppy players, we’re really like your feedback. Please look and use this form. Then write to us and tell us what else we need to include, what should be presented differently, and anything else we could do to make this a better tool for you.
You can reach us at MaePuppy@PuppyPlayPride.com and scamp@PuppyPlayPride.com. Thanks in advance for your feedback. If you have compliments, we like those too.
How to use the Puppy Play Negotiation Form
We all have our one ideas about what makes a really great puppy play scene or lifestyle. The problem is we often have trouble communicating our desires and expectations to the people we play with. To help, think of your ideal puppy play scene. Then print this form. Finally fill it out based on that scene and share the results with your play partner. The form is intended to be completed by the person playing the puppy role, but it may also be helpful for a trainer to fill it out with his/her own desires and expectations.
It’s ok, too, if you have multiple ideal scenes. Just complete an additional form for each.

Credit
Obviously we did not create the concept of a negotiation form. We were inspired, in part, by all the more general negotiation forms we’ve seen in the BDSM world. In these, puppy play is usually a single line item. There are dozens of such forms, so we can’t give credit to any particular one.
The idea for a more specific form has it’s roots in the area of age play. In particular we were inspired by the work of Little Girl Lost and her age play negotiation form, which can be found here. Her main web site also has many excellent works on the subjects of role play in general and age play in particular.
Finally, we wish to give you credit too. When you submit feedback that we include in the Puppy Play Negotiation Form, we’ll give you credit and show our thanks right here.
