The Hottest Pup Party

in downtown los angeles

Did you know that gay people in dog masks have been a thing since the 1980’s? It’s true, and no one does it better than Howl DTLA. Hosted by Pups Dume and Timo, Howl is a party thrown once a month at Precinct Los Angeles where queer people of all stripes come together to celebrate pet play, support their local artists, and enjoy live performances. Enjoy $4 drafts all night long, explore a variety of kinky vendors, throw yourself into the pup mosh, and make some new friends.

Best of all? It’s free to attend! So come join us the first Sunday of every month from 3-9pm, only at LA Precinct!

independent vendors

support local queer artists

Are you in the market for some fabulous leather goods? A bit of bootblacking, perhaps? What about a collection of spicy artwork, or a dash of tasteful erotica? And by “tasteful” I do mean ridiculously and egregiously “smutty”, darling. Located on the balcony of LA Precinct, you can find our vendor’s hall packed with a diverse array of local queer artists selling everything from slick vinyl stickers to gorgeous handmade pup masks.

So what’re you waiting for?

If you’ve never bought cookies from a guy dressed in bondage gear, now’s your chance! Spoilers: they’re delicious.

live performances

but can she do any tricks?

The rumors are true- Snoopy grew up to be a drag queen and her tiddies are, in fact, tremendously plush. The live performances hosted here at Howl are an incredible display of queer excellence, creativity, and ridiculous, sexy shenanigans. Who else has gay dogs twirling from the ceiling and fierce furry queens with breast-fuls of poppers?

Each Howl is designed with a different theme in mind, and expertly curated with some of LA’s most talented queer performers. So please, we invite you to join us, take a sniff- and don’t forget to tip your drag queens!

the pup mosh

come get down with the dogs

Listen, all we’re saying is- you’re never too old to play pretend and get your belly rubbed, alright? A pup mosh is a place where human animals get together to play, wrestle, and be silly / occasionally sexy together. Our mosh is created using a series of gymnastics-grade mats, then filled with an array of squeaky toys, tug-o-war ropes, and dog bones for all human pets to enjoy. And though knee pads are not required, they are highly recommended.

Remember- consent is key, and joy has no expiration date. Now, let’s see you wag that tail, puppy!
