What Kittens are to cat types, Puppies are to dog types.

Puppies are the young form of Doggirl, although they are capable of evolving to other forms instead of the Doggirl under certain circumstances. Puppies are most often found as pets or among domestically inclined members of a Tamer’s harem, as their fighting styles are not up to par to most other Pokégirls. Puppies tend to have a wide range of personalities, as do their feline counterparts, but there are some commonalities among them, such as the unwavering loyalty common to all dog breeds of Pokégirl, as well as a love of chasing anything moving at a fast speed. This last trait can be trained out of them, and can be controlled better once they evolve.

In terms of appearance, Puppies generally run the gamut. They can range from having just dog-ears, tail, and nose with slightly paw-like hands and blunt nails to being a full anthropomorphic. There’s no real commonality. Some Puppy breeds have no tails, or a small stub of a tail. There’s no common height range for Puppies, and as for their bustline, it’s usually an A-Cup or B-Cup.

Puppies are usually considered Pokékits. By the time they come of age to be captured, they normally evolve to Doggirl, although there are other forms possible for them to evolve into. They were created at around the same time as the Kitten and Catgirl, although they were meant to be a more stable form, evolutionary speaking, than Kittens and Catgirls. This means that there is less chance of a surprise evolution popping up somewhere. Their role during the Revenge War was about the same.

All Puppies love to play, especially with their Tamers, and often both Pokégirl and Tamer wind up wrestling or otherwise physically with one another at least once a day as a result of their need for attention and affection. Puppies usually wind up as pets, as in the wild they do not last all that long except when near civilization. Journeyman Tamers normally only put up with Puppies to evolve them into a stronger and more useful form.

As mentioned earlier, Puppies are most often found near civilization. They tend to run in packs, like most dog-type breeds of Pokégirl, and tend to be slightly more aggressive when together. This doesn’t last long, however, as a larger, more intimidating Pokégirl can easily scatter the pack in fear. Most often, Puppies usually find some place to beg for food, which makes them fairly easy to catch.

Puppies generally try to get along with every breed they encounter, their natural friendliness and good cheer making them easy to get along with for most types. For some breeds, they tend to come on too strong, and have a tendency to scare Bunnygirls. They have a friendly rivalry with Kittens, but tend to forget that in the face of a chance for cuddles.

The Taming habits of Puppies are fairly standard for Pokégirls, although most of the time Puppies are found as Pokékits. Pokékit Puppies love cuddling and snuggling, as well as scratching behind the ears. This doesn’t change when they become Pokégirls.

Puppies are extremely popular among male Tamers, as well as Tamers who want an animal-type but don’t want to put up with the ditzyness of Bunnygirls and are allergic to or afraid of cats. Thresholding into a Puppy is fairly common, especially in rural areas.
