Does anyone else think "puppery" is the funniest word?

I assume people are basing this word off of hatchery or cattery, but the word is kennel. a kennel is a place that stores, breeds, and sells dogs. This is definitely my ocd talking, but also, i just think it's super funny that puppery became the accepted word.

I genuinely love puppery. I had assumed it was from "hatchery" as well and it makes me smile every time I see it

Yeah I wouldn't be surprised if its derived from hatchery but I would assume people aren't going for kennel because its too... doggy? It would feel weird to see it on a wolf site since in my mind its a Dog term.

Oh, I love thinking of my Petz days! RIP, PF Magic. Puppery definitely seemed to come from cattery to me, even though my OCD agrees it should be called a kennel ... and yet ...

I doubt I'll be doing the kind of breeding that would make one worth it (I'm just winging it right now) but it is tempting to make a thread to sell adults and call it a Doggerel.

I think I might have started the puppery trend (or maybe other people just did the same pun with hatchery lol)

I just find it cuter than kennel lol, its not that deep xD

I use Nursery personally, but I hope Lorwolf users continue to keep using different ones, puppery, kennel, nursery and whatever else comes in the future. More alliterative names opportunities, pun opportunities and funny 'what's the difference between,' threads, please.

Once I heard someone refer to their shop as a hatchery. There are no rules. Refuse containment, embrace chaos.

Puppery is cute! It's funny to see folks coming up with canine-themed alternatives for hatchery (hello FR users!); I've seen "howlery" at least once and that one got a good chuckle out of me.
