OUR CURRENT TITLEHOLDERS
Each year, our community elects new titleholders to represent the heart, energy, and diversity of the pup and handler scene across Europe. These roles celebrate connection, advocacy, and visibility, and this year’s titleholders bring all that and more.
Khao – European Puppy 2025
Borksies and awruffsical! I’m Khao — a chaotic husky spreading fun, treats, and just a little destruction.
I’m a gamer, D&D player, and dungeon explorer (in more ways than one 😈).
Pup play is my joy, and I’m here to share that joy with all of you.
Licks and sniffs,
– Khao
STEFANO – European Handler 2025
Hi, I’m Stefano — an Italian handler with a big heart and a passion for care.
I’ve been active in social causes from local politics to LGBTQIAPK+ rights, and now I’m proud to support our pup community.
Let’s build something beautiful together.
– Stefano
WHO ARE WE
European Pup & Handler is a unifying organisation that brings together pups, handlers, and allies from across Europe under one playful, proud banner. We exist to strengthen the community through visibility, education, empowerment, and ethical celebration. Our mission is rooted in joy, consent, and collective care — honouring the past while building an inclusive future for all forms of pup and pet play.
Unleash Authenticity
We believe pup play is as diverse as the people.
Whether you bark, wag, growl, or purr — this is a space where you’re free to be fully, unapologetically you.
We champion self-expression in all forms and honour every unique identity, kink, and journey.
Safe, Seen, Supported
We thrive when everyone feels valued, respected, and protected.
Consent, care, and communication are non-negotiable — and we actively work to build a culture where no one is left behind.
Visibility matters. So does safety. And no one should have to choose between the two.
Grow Together
We learn, play, and grow as a pack.
Whether you’re brand new or long-time leather, we believe in sharing knowledge, laughter, and resources to uplift one another.
Mentorship, mutual aid, and joy are part of how we thrive — together.
CLUBs & NETWORKs IN EUROPE
WE’RE NOT ALONE IN THIS JOURNEY — ACROSS EUROPE, pups and handlers are coming together to build vibrant, supportive communities. From local scenes to international contests, titleholders are being elected, leadership is being celebrated, and our shared culture is growing stronger every day.
When we talk about clubs and networks, we mean the wider web of community support that helps pups and handlers grow, not just title organisations, but also events, local clubs, former titleholders, and ongoing initiatives that bring people together. While we can’t capture every chosen family or individual connection, we aim to highlight the groups, organisers, and past leaders who help make this journey possible for so many.
Below, you’ll find just some of the incredible title-based organisations and networks doing this work each shaped by its local context but united in shared values of visibility, care, and joy.
