Because Barks & Paws Week is as much a space for celebration as it is for reflection, we are committed to addressing the realities that impact our community. Building on our conversations with you throughout the year, we have chosen to dedicate our first round table to essential issues: mental health, loneliness, and Chemsex prevention. A time for listening and sharing, to ensure our fetish practices go hand-in-hand with a healthy and supportive daily life.
