Hi all,

It’s been awhile since an update was made on this site, and we’re sorry it’s been so long. However this latest update hopefully fixes a lot of lingering issues on the site to help make your experience using it better.

We’ve also introduced some brand new features, some small ones to help usability and visibility, as well as a brand new function!

NEW FEATURE - Packs!

Are you in a pack? Do you own pups? Want to let everyone know?

Well now you can go to the new pack section here: https://puppypride.social/profile/pack and add your friends to you pack!

People MUST be on your friends list to send them a pack invite, and must also then accept the pack request. All pack requests are then shown on both peoples profile.

We hope to add more to this feature soon, so if you have any requests on what you’d like to see, just add them in the comments below.

Feature Improvements – Groups & Events

We’ve added in a multicopy button that lets you just input your future event dates and copies everything over in one go. You can add up to 12 months worth of events in minutes.

You can now invite people to your groups, limited at 10 at a time to reduce spam (50 for subscribers)

Feature Improvements – User Profile

Bluesky is now finally added to our prebuilt list of social medias, and has the correct icon showing on your profile.

User location now show your nearest town on your profile, rather then just country (if set)

Country flag now shown next to usernames on profiles and on search results, to help find local pups easier

You can now easily hide your age from profile settings

Feature Improvements – Live Chats

You can now send links, emotes, and images, as well as highlight text with bold, italic, or underlines in live chats!

Added a search functionality

Feature Improvements – Homepage Feeds

There’s now multiple feeds so you can filter by all, fiends, following, or just your pack. Allowing you to easily see what’s going on near you.

Added a more convenient follow and add friend button

Feature Improvements – General functionality

Hovering over online users now shows their profile popup
