Dancing / Puppy Off The Chain: A Furry Dance Party

Posted by Kelly O on Mon, Aug 8, 2011 at 4:20 PM

This post has been updated since it's original publication.

Have you ever wondered what it would look like if Seattle's Furry Community** threw a big ole dance party? Well, today's your lucky day! More photos, from the past weekend's "Off The Chain" party at Club Motor, after the jump...

CORRECTION: **The event was thrown by Fur The Record, a new company focused on providing the NW furry community with events specially catered to them. More about Fur The Record HERE and HERE.

Fox in Green Socks looks like he doesn't remember his dance class with Vockah Redu as well as he'd hoped.

furlife had nothing to do with the event except for an outlet for marketing/promotion.

The event was thrown http://furtherecord.net

The company is called Fur The Record, the event was called Off The Chain.

HUH.

I see mostly canines. Looks like even in this case, Seattle is not much for racial diversity.

@8 Yeah. Nobody wants to be a sexy badger? Or a studly kangaroo?

@8 canines are the predominant species throughout the furry fandom, even on a national and global level.

@9 check out the pics here, there's a rad kangaroo.

Was an awesome party! I was there. Furtherecord.net did an awesome job with this one.

Most of the suiters were dogs, but there were also foxes, otters, cats, and even and lombax. =D

Had I not been at home, I would have been at Slayer, eating pizza. So, I, uh, would have missed it too. (I'm so out of the loop these days... *sigh*)

Strange, I had no idea the furry fetish had such overlap with BDSM. I suppose it makes sense though with the whole animal/collar thing which seems a natural fit.
