🐾 July is looking like an incredible month! From pup events and gear nights to Atlanta Leather Pride, I’m excited to spend another month connecting with old friends, meeting new ones, and making memories with the pack. If you see me out and about, don’t be shy. Come say hi

I always thought “Chaos Corgi” meant spontaneous. My friends had… a different definition. 😂 A pottery shop in Juneau, an inside joke about always being “in the way,” and an unexpected lesson about taking up space. 🐾 ruffthe.dog/blog/confess...

Sometimes the best part of a trip isn’t what you did. It’s finding a moment where the world gets quiet enough that you can stop thinking and simply feel safe.

Alaska started as a cruise, but it became a reflection on loss, friendship, visibility, and the connections we leave behind wherever we go. 🐾🧡 ruffthe.dog/blog/the-pie... #UnapologeticallyPuppy #TravelBlog #PupCommunity

🐾 The surprise is out. I’m officially running for Georgia Pup 2026. This community helped me rediscover Ruff, and I hope to give some of that back through visibility, education, and stewardship. Read more: ruffthe.dog/blog/running... 📸 @masonward #UnapologeticallyPuppy

Your first pup event will probably feel weird. Not because you’re doing it wrong. Most of us didn’t arrive confident—we arrived curious. A reflection on awkward beginnings, community, and finding your place. ruffthe.dog/blog/your-fi... #PupPlay #UnapologeticallyPuppy

Visibility is not just about being seen. It is about stewardship. A reflection on protecting queer spaces, community accountability, and the responsibility that comes with recognition in the pup and leather community. ruffthe.dog/blog/the-res...

People often see the barking, gear, and chaos. What they miss is the trust, vulnerability, grounding, and belonging underneath it all. New blog post: ruffthe.dog/blog/misconc... #PupPlay #UnapologeticallyPuppy

This week everything shifted. For a moment I didn’t know what came next. Ruff grounded me, reminded me who I am, and helped me start moving again. I didn’t lose myself. I just lost where I was standing. 🐾 ruffthe.dog/blog/i-didnt...

What does #UnapologeticallyPuppy mean? Not being loud. Not hiding. Visibility isn’t about being seen… it’s about making space for others to show up too. Ruff isn’t something I visit anymore. I bring him with me. 🐾 ruffthe.dog/blog/what-un...

May is stacked 🐾🔥 From Atlanta to the mountains to the ocean… Ruff is on the move. FWA → Pup Camp → Pup Night → Blue Moon → Alaska 🌲🏕️🚢 If you see me out, come say hi or wag a little. Let’s make it a month to remember. #RuffsStuff #UnapologeticallyPuppy

Something shifted for me this weekend, not in a loud or dramatic way, but in a quiet moment where I realized I’m no longer trying to figure out where I fit. I can feel that I’m already there, and I’m ready to step fully into it. ruffthe.dog/blog/i-broug... #UnapologeticallyPuppy

Pack isn’t about dominance. It’s about belonging. And sometimes… it’s the thing that saves you. 🐾 ruffthe.dog/blog/what-pa... #UnapologeticallyPuppy #PackLife #BelongingMatters #PupCommunity #KinkCommunity #QueerJoy #PupPlay #FoundFamily #YouAreNotAlone

This week included: 🐾 telling my mom I’m a pup 🐾 pups recognizing Ruff at an Atlanta gear swap 🐾 realizing how much energy it takes to hide parts of yourself I wrote about misconceptions, therapy, community, and rediscovering joy (and zoomies). ruffthe.dog/blog/what-pe... #UnapologeticallyPuppy

“I didn’t create Ruff. I rediscovered him.” A story about leather, community, divorce, travel, and finding the pup that had been waiting in the shadows all along. ruffthe.dog/blog/redisco... #pupplay #leathercommunity #unapologeticallypuppy

Working on expanding my class offerings for events and workshops. What are some things you all want to hear about? ruffthe.dog/classes/

Doh!!! Pup had the wrong date for pup tea. Oops. #UnapologeticallyPuppy

I’ve always said “someday this will matter more.” That day is here. I shared something deeply personal on the blog today about living with APKD, facing transplant, and what it means for the life I’ve built traveling, connecting, and being Ruff. Read more 🐾 ruffthe.dog/blog/blog10/
