Approach me with pride for without it you have nothing of value to present. If your eyes are dull and lifeless I will soon bore of your negativity and move on to the toy who holds some self esteem for me to mold to my liking.

If you come to me like a whipped dog with it's tail between it's legs how can I teach you to be the puppy of my dreams?

If you whimper and whine just to please your fantasy I will turn from you to find my own reality. Puppies are expected to be obedient yet adorable not pathetic mongrels you wouldn't allow to fetch your slippers or to lie beside your bed.

You want to be my pony? This Mistress would not sit upon the back of a candidate for the glue factory but seeks the finest steed to carry her as majestically as she deserves.

Without pride your head hung low is not in submission but in dejection. No property of mine will project such an attitude.

You wish to be my footstool or the table I place my coffee on, yet how can I trust in your ability even as an inanimate object if you tremble and hold yourself like a spineless porcupine?

My feet deserve the comfort of a stable stool and my coffee spilt will bring me no pleasure. Can I have pride in displaying you to my friends if your demeanor shows a useless piece of humanity with no glow of vitality?

You come to me stating your need for slavery, to be caged, used and discarded. To be deprived of all joy. To live in a vacuum of pain and humiliation where all comfort is denied. To be an endless servant who feels the touch of my whip for even the smallest transgression. Yet my smile warms your heart as the gentleness of my touch brings you peace.

Perhaps you will fall under my spell and become my devoted subject.

PRIDE is the fundamental requirement. I will accept no less.

Your fantasies of serving as a puppy, a pony, an object, servant, and slave will be realized much quicker if your pride is intact and you can be the valuable show piece a lovestyle Mistress will expect.
