Spotted the paw-fect match! 🤩 Posing beside a stunning piece of marquetry art from the Independent Order of Odd Fellows: its central design looks like a round-faced dog with an open mouth and collar chain! 😄 #MuseumPup #DogsOfCulture #HumanDog #HumanPup #PupLife #PupPlay #ChicagoGay #travel

A captivating museum selfie featuring an enthusiast in a detailed black leather puppy hood with prominent pointed ears and an expressive tongue playfully sticking out. They're wearing a sleek black fitted top with white piping trim and a metallic chain collar with a green "taft" tag. Posed beside them is a striking piece of historical woodwork - the Independent Order of Odd Fellows Marquetry Table from 1933. The intricately crafted wooden display features geometric patterns with contrasting light and dark woods forming elaborate borders surrounding a central shield-like emblem. Fascinatingly, the central design resembles a round-faced canine with what appears to be an open mouth and collar chain, creating a serendipitous visual harmony with the puppy hood enthusiast posing alongside it. Above in the background hangs a decorative starburst installation with red and golden arrows. The rich amber tones of the marquetry work beautifully against the purple-blue museum wall. #PuppyPlay #LeatherCommunity #HistoricalArtifacts #OddFellows #MarquetryArt #MuseumVisit #WoodworkArt #FraternalHistory #MuseumMoments #CreativeConnections #BlueskyBuzz #MuseumAdventures #PupPlayCommunity #PuppyPlayCommunity #PuppyPride #PupPride #mueseumselfie

Independent Order of Odd Fellows Marquetry Table, 1933
Probably Islip, New York / Wood
Collection American Folk Art Museum, New York, Gift of Kendra and Allan Daniel, 2015.1.160 (ames J. Crozier, a carpenter from Islip, New York, made this intricately decorated marquetry table Is surface features a number of fraternal symbols, but it is the prominent letters "FLT" and "iOOF and the three-link chain that mark this as an Odd Fellows object. The initials for "Friendship," "Love," and "Truth" served to remind lodge members of the ritual teachings from the Initiatory Degree: like the chain, they were bound together in those virtues. The all-seeing eye symbolizes the omniscience of God, and the heart in hand signifies candor and sincerity.

Visiting the Taft’s exhibit on American secret fraternities (www.taftmuseum.org/exhibitions/...). Couldn't resist posing with the infamous "lodge goat" used for initiation rites! 🐐 #MuseumPup #history #TaftMuseum #Cincinnati #travel #HumanDog #HumanPup #GayPup #PupLife #PupPlay #PuppyPlay

A captivating scene unfolds in a museum dedicated to American secret fraternities, where history and intrigue intertwine. The image showcases a striking exhibit featuring a peculiar wooden contraption - a white, horse-like figure mounted on bright yellow wheels. This curious object is none other than a ritual initiation device known as the "lodge goat," once a staple in fraternal initiation ceremonies.

In the foreground, a figure stands in stark contrast to the vibrant crimson walls. Clad entirely in black, they wear a sleek, form-fitting outfit complete with a leather horse hood, its pointed ears creating a dramatic silhouette. The juxtaposition of the modern, fetish-inspired attire against the historical artifacts creates a compelling visual narrative.

The museum's deep red walls serve as a dramatic backdrop, adorned with various artifacts. A weathered wooden sign proclaims "BURY THE DEAD" in faded lettering, hinting at the secretive and sometimes macabre nature of fraternal rituals. Flanking the sign are two ornate banners, their intricate designs barely visible in the dim lighting.

This image captures a fascinating intersection of historical fraternal practices and modern subculture, inviting viewers to contemplate the evolution of secret societies and their enduring allure in contemporary times.

The wooden "goat" takes center stage, perched atop a white pedestal. Its simplistic design belies its significance in fraternal history, where it was used to test and often humiliate new initiates. The yellow wheels and white body create a striking contrast against the rich burgundy surroundings.

From the accompanying text:

Modern Woodmen of America Lodge Goat, early 1900s
Possibly Vermont | Painted wood with leather and horsehair
Collection American Folk Art Museum, New York, Gift of Susan Sperry Burns, 2020.16.1
This goat was made for the Modern Woodmen of America, an organization founded in lowa in 1883.
From its inception, Modern Woodmen was formed as a charitable society, providing financial assistance to families in need. In the early 1900s, various fraternal orders used lodge goats for initiation rituals.
Here, the wheelbarrow-like construction indicates how this object would have been used, with a hooded initiate sitting on the animal's back while a society member grasped the handles and directed the goat's intentionally jerky and clumsy movement.

THE LOCAL STORY
Although originally seized on by the popular press as a means of maligning the secrecy and supposed disorderliness of fraternal orders, the figure of the goat was later reclaimed by these groups as a tongue-in-cheek symbol of insider knowledge, with the lodge goat coming into use from 1900 to 1930 as part of increasingly satirical rituals. In 1902, Cincinnati Freemason James Pettibone compiled The Lodge Go

A striking image captured from a low angle showing a person perched confidently on what appears to be train tracks or a railway structure. They're wearing a detailed black/camo neoprene dog hood with pointed ears and a metallic snout piece that catches the light. The hood completely covers their head, with only their mouth visible through an opening.

They're dressed in a black zip-up hoodie with bright pink text on the chest that reads "DOGPARK DISSIDENT," and urban camouflage leggings in shades of gray and black. A silver chain necklace is visible at their collar, and they're wearing a black ring on one finger.

The person sits cross-legged on what looks like wooden railway ties or track infrastructure, with the perspective looking upward. Behind them stretches a dramatic sky—vibrant blue with scattered white clouds creating a striking backdrop that contrasts with their dark outfit and hood.

The composition creates a sense of elevation and defiance, with the figure seemingly at home in this industrial setting while embodying an alternative aesthetic that merges pup play culture with urban fashion.

Rainy day? Perfect for some cozy indoor pup time! 📚🐾 Curled up with a thought-provoking read in a vintage-inspired nook. #Puphood #VintageDecor #GreenBook #readingnook #retroaesthetic #ChicagoGay #cozyinteriors #HumanDog #HumanPup #GayPup #GayPuppy #PupLife #PupPlay #PuppyPlay #photography #travel

A striking visual contrast unfolds in this richly textured scene, capturing a leather-clad figure immersed in domestic serenity.

The subject wears a form-fitting black leather puppy hood with glossy detailing, its structured snout and perked ears creating a bold silhouette against the warm interior. They recline in a plush crimson velvet armchair featuring ornate carved wooden arms and cabriole legs, fingers delicately cradling a moss-green paperback. The outfit juxtaposes rugged aesthetics with cozy casualwear—a blue-and-red buffalo plaid flannel shirt tucked into faded Levi's-style jeans, completed by sturdy black engineer boots.
The room radiates mid-century nostalgia with cream wallpaper blooming with hand-painted florals: blush peonies, butter-yellow daffodils, and emerald vines twining around ceramic hummingbirds. A vintage walnut side table displays a 1940s Zenith console radio with honey-toned woodgrain, its woven wicker speaker cover intact. Above this, a gallery wall showcases sepia-toned family photographs in simple oak frames alongside an abstract cyanotype print. Golden light spills from a brass floor lamp with a pleated parchment shade, casting patterns across the wide-plank oak flooring. A Persian-inspired rug in sapphire and terracotta tones anchors the space, its geometric patterns softened by wear. The scene masterfully balances fetishwear's edge with grandmotherly comfort—steam-punk meets Better Homes & Gardens circa 1965.

A person wearing a sleek black/camo neoprene pup hood stands in front of a vibrant storefront. The hood features pointed ears, a short muzzle with a white nose ring, and exposes only a small portion of skin around the mouth. They're dressed in a fitted black Under Armour athletic shirt with light gray piping along the seams. A chunky silver chain collar adorns their neck, adding a striking contrast to the all-black ensemble.

Behind them is a distinctive building with bright yellow brick walls and a large mural featuring a blue background with diamond patterns. The mural showcases the word "LATONIA" in bold white letters and displays a stylized horse head illustration in gray and white. The juxtaposition of the person in the puppy hood against the equine imagery creates an interesting visual dialogue between different forms of animal-inspired aesthetics.

The composition captures the intersection of alternative fashion and public space, with the bright colors of the storefront contrasting with the sleek, dark appearance of the subject. The lighting suggests it's daytime, with natural light illuminating the scene.

Sunlight dances on vibrant grass as a figure reclines, their posture a study in relaxed vigilance. Adorned in a sleek black/camo neoprene hood with pointed ears, they embody an air of mystery and allure. The mask, a glossy black with hints of iridescent detailing, transforms the wearer into a creature of urban fantasy—part human, part canine, wholly captivating.

A dark denim jacket hugs broad shoulders, its texture a stark contrast to the smooth contours of the hood. Fingers, adorned with a simple band, rest casually on worn jeans, hinting at a story etched in every crease and fade. The scene is a juxtaposition of the extraordinary against the ordinary—a masked entity lounging on a suburban lawn.

Behind them, a picturesque backdrop unfolds. A white house stands proudly, its crisp paint gleaming in the spring sunshine. Beside it, a butter-yellow building adds a cheerful note, green shutters providing a pop of color against the cloudless azure sky. Bare branches reach upwards, promising the lush canopy of leaves to come.

The image captures a moment of surreal serenity. It's as if the wearer of the hood has stepped out of a graphic novel and into this tranquil neighborhood, challenging perceptions and igniting imagination. The contrast between the futuristic headgear and the classic Americana setting creates a visual narrative that's both jarring and oddly harmonious.

Dressed in a casual charcoal sweater and fitted blue jeans, their posture suggests both curiosity and joy—one knee bent, one arm slightly raised as if greeting the day with enthusiasm. The morning sun casts gentle shadows, highlighting the contours of their form against the textured stone wall.

Behind them, dormant tree branches create delicate patterns against the sky, promising spring's imminent arrival. Their bare twigs dance in the gentle morning breeze, adding movement to this moment of urban tranquility. The warm golden light bathes everything in a honey-like glow, transforming the ordinary into something magical.

In the background, magnificent glass skyscrapers rise majestically, their windows reflecting the morning sunshine like countless mirrors catching fire.

We encounter Lady, a majestic black Labrador, sitting alongside her human pup companion. The pup attendant, adorned in an intricately designed blac/camo neoprene puppy hood with prominent pointed ears, creates a striking silhouette against the spring sky. The contrast between the meticulously crafted hood—complete with a distinctive silver nose ring at the muzzle—and the classic denim jacket speaks to the beautiful duality of structured design meeting casual comfort. Lady's emerald green collar with chain detail adds a pop of color that draws the eye, while the golden hues of early spring foliage and a vintage yellow vehicle create a warm backdrop that enhances the connection between these two beings. The relationship deepens as we observe the pup attendant extending open palms toward Lady in a gesture of offering and invitation. The attendant's olive-green pants complement the verdant collar adorning Lady's neck, creating a visual harmony that feels intentional yet effortless. The attendant slightly hunched forward, hands playfully cupped as if holding something precious. Lady's attentive gaze suggests anticipation and trust, her glossy black coat catching the sunlight in ways that reveal its subtle texture and depth.

The scene shifts to a touching moment between two beings sharing a profound connection. Kneeling on the golden straw-covered ground, the figure in their distinctive black puppy hood and navy denim jacket reaches toward a magnificent black Labrador. The dog's glossy coat shimmers in the sunlight, its powerful body positioned confidently as it stands before its kneeling companion. Behind them looms the same vibrant yellow truck, now providing context to their countryside excursion. Bare trees reach toward the crystal blue sky, creating a natural canopy over this intimate moment. The contrast between the structured leather hood with its metallic accents and the dog's natural form creates a visual dialogue about companionship across different expressions of identity. Pine cones scattered across the ground add textural detail to this sensual outdoor setting where devoted play and authentic connection merge beautifully.

This intimate close-up captures the deepest essence of connection between handler and companion. The figure in the sleek black neoprene puppy hood have their eyes closed while gently placing their hand on the black Labrador's powerful back, creating a bridge between their worlds. The hood's pointed ears stand proud against the blue sky, while the metallic ring at the muzzle gleams in perfect harmony with the dog's collar chain. The Labrador's muscular form and glossy coat create a stunning contrast against the golden straw beneath their feet. The yellow truck stands sentinel in the background, framed by winter-bare branches that create a natural frame for this moment of tenderness. There's something profoundly moving about the tactile connection between hands and animal fur – a wordless communication that transcends conventional relationships and speaks to primal bonds of trust, care and mutual respect.

Sunlight streams through bare branches against a brilliant azure sky, casting a warm glow on this intimate moment captured in perfect detail. The pup kneels attentively beside a vibrant mustard-yellow delivery truck, their paws extended to a black lab approaching from the left. The contrast between the vehicle's bold color and the figure's outfit is striking - a fitted denim jacket hugs shoulders while khaki pants meet the dried straw-covered earth. Most captivating is the glossy black/camo neoprene puppy hood adorning their head, complete with pointed ears and a white nose ring at the muzzle that catches the light brilliantly. The hood's smooth texture creates a sensual silhouette against the rustic backdrop, embodying devoted service and attentiveness as they work diligently on their task. The fallen pine needles and autumn detritus create a natural carpet beneath them.

@zadkielice.bsky.social & I went to the opening of Myth and Marble, the #ArtInstitute #Chicago ( #AIC )'s debut of Ancient Roman sculptures from the famed Torlonia Collection. Spotted many animals! #MuseumAdventure #DogsOfCulture #HumanDog #HumanPup #GayPup #PupLife #PupPlay #PuppyPlay #ChicagoGay

This image places our pup explorers within Chicago's vibrant streetscape. The black/camo hood with its striking white ring and camouflage muzzle complement the wearer's casual denim jacket and plaid button-up, while the blue-accented hood partner appears with subtle headphones around their neck. The urban composition captures the soft glow of early evening light washing across the downtown buildings, with street lamps beginning to illuminate against the blue-gray sky.
The contrast between the precisely crafted neoprene hoods and the everyday urban environment creates a compelling visual narrative about identity expression within public spaces. Their confident posture and direct gaze suggest comfortable self-possession amidst the city's flow, while the slightly defocused background hints at the energy of Chicago's downtown core.

The image captures the sophisticated ambiance of the Art Institute of Chicago's auditorium bathed in rich purple lighting. Presenter Lisa Ayla Çakmak stands at the wooden podium while the projection screen displays the exhibition title "Myth and Marble: Ancient Roman Sculpture from the Torlonia Collection" in an elegant typography designed specifically for the exhibition. The centerpiece of the slide features a hauntingly beautiful 2nd-century marble sculpture of a young boy with dogs, creating a poignant visual dialogue between ancient and contemporary interpretations of human-canine connections. The warm marble tones contrast dramatically against the deep burgundy background, while exhibition dates reveal this as a prestigious North American tour running from March 15 to June 29, 2025.
The delicate craftsmanship of the ancient Roman sculpture is evident even in projection form, with the smooth marble surface capturing light in a way that brings dimension to the child's serene expression and the attentive posture of the canine figure beside him. The exhibition information suggests an exceptional cultural moment - these treasures have never left Europe, making their Chicago debut particularly significant.

"Statue of a Resting Goat"--Magnificent marble sculpture of a goat with impressive curved horns and luxuriously textured fleece. The most striking part of the statues is the dramatic head, a 17th century restoration attributed to Gian Lorenzo Bernini. The sculptors has achieved an extraordinary feat in rendering the animal's thick, curling coat with such tactile realism that one can almost feel the woolly texture. The creature's powerful form rests in a dignified recumbent position, its muscular body suggesting both strength and grace. The dramatic sweep of its magnificent horns creates a striking silhouette against the exhibition wall, which reveals the title "MYTH AND MARBLE" alongside text identifying this as part of the Torlonia Collection of Ancient Roman Sculpture. The pristine white marble captures light beautifully, highlighting the intricate details of the beast's face and the sumptuous texture of its carved fleece.

In this outdoor photograph, a figure reclines against a monumental metallic sculpture that dominates the composition with its bold geometric presence. The sculpture features a massive C-shaped form paired with a triangular cheese, both crafted from polished stainless steel that captures and reflects the brilliant blue sky overhead.

The human subject, wearing a distinctive black neoprene puppy hood that obscures their face while creating a striking silhouette, sits casually at the base of the structure. Their outfit consists of a textured gray jacket layered over a patterned button-up shirt, complemented by olive-brown pants and casual footwear. The juxtaposition of the figure's organic form against the sculpture's rigid geometry creates a compelling visual narrative—one where human and artistic expression intersect in unexpected ways.

Surrounding this central scene, dormant trees with bare branches reach toward the cloudless cerulean sky, their intricate network of limbs creating a natural frame that emphasizes the sculpture's artificial precision. The setting appears to be a public park or installation space during late winter or early spring, evidenced by the dried golden grasses carpeting the ground beneath the figure.

Light plays a crucial role in this composition, with the afternoon sun casting subtle shadows while simultaneously illuminating the sculpture's metallic surface, creating highlights that seem to shift and dance across its curves. This interplay of light,

A playful juxtaposition of eras and identities comes alive in this snapshot. On one side, we have a modern-day human pup—a figure donning a sleek neoprene puppy hood with a camouflage-patterned snout and a ring at the muzzle. Their expressive eyes peek out, radiating curiosity and humor, perfectly complemented by their ornate, paisley-patterned gold and black shirt. The pup strikes a confident thumbs-up pose, standing beside a framed etching of a majestic horse.

The artwork in question is *The Frisian Horse, from Series of Horses* by Dutch artist Paulus Potter (1625–1654). Created in 1652, this etching captures the dignified stance of a Frisian horse, its powerful form rendered with meticulous detail against a pastoral backdrop. Potter was renowned for his ability to depict animals with remarkable realism and character, and this piece is no exception. The horse stands as a timeless symbol of strength and grace, its image preserved on paper for centuries.

This etching is part of the Charles Hack and the Hearn Family Trust Collection. It was acquired through contributions from various endowment funds, including the Herry B. and Bessie K. Braude Memorial and other generous donors. The piece now resides as a testament to both artistic heritage and the enduring connection between humans and animals.

The contrast between the pup’s contemporary gear and the horse’s classical depiction creates an intriguing dialogue between past and present. It’s a visual ode to how our fascinatio
