Greetings! I play as a large dog, and have to say it's very enjoyable! In answer to your questions: 1) The place I got my paws from doesn't make them anymore, but there are others like Top to Bottom Leathers, and Sinvention (who happen to make an interesting set of restraints that force you to stand on your toes for ponyplay. I really want to try those some day.). My collar I got from Arcata Pet. They used to have a nice selection of locking dog collars (who knows why they even have those, but they do) but there are a few left. It wouldn't be too hard to buy some supplies from Tandy Leather Factory and make your own collars (and then restraints, and then harness. Leather work can get a little addictive). You can get as involved and elaborate as you like, from going all-out and getting a dog pillow and dishes and kennel to just crawling up to your owner while wagging an imaginary tail and begging for a pet. 2) My experience has been great. The paws go on and I just do my best to think like a dog. My Lady is into fostering dogs and loves to train them, so she had a lot of fun playing and training me. We even had fun altering a dog training collar to fit me. I have to say, one press of the button will have your attention! Even if we aren't actively playing I enjoy laying by her side or on the floor next to her in hopes of being pet, or she'll pet me on the head in public and tell me "Good Boy" when I do something right. 3) I have not been to any conventions. I would like to go though. 4) I'v tried being a wolf, though I'v always found it difficult being a wild animal since they have so little interaction with people. I suppose one could role play a cow or donkey, and I'm interested in watching someone be a raccoon. Protect your trash cans and corn fields ;)
