A thought on the ownership idea.  I think private ownership can work well with this story, if it's assumed that the privately owned pets are kenneled at the club, (in exchange, it's agreed that while they're boarded at the club, they're available to other club members).  It's a best of both worlds approach, I think.  The reasoning behind doing so, from a private owner perspective, is that the pet is not maintained at his or her private residence, and eliminates, or reduces the chances of being caught with an 'illegal' pet.<br/><br/>Haibane, the character signup sheets are fine.  I'll also create a male dog character, but I'm going to leave many of his details blank, for now, and bring him out if, or when he's needed, as either dom, or sub, depending on what the other players might want or need for the story.
