Envelope, puppy?

I live on the downlow. I was born on the downlow.

You write "downlow" on an envelope, you lick a stamp,
stick it on that puppy, drop it in the mailbox, it comes to me.

puppy means envelope?
thanks....

Hi, 'Puppy' is used here as a slang way to refer to 'a thing'. Stick it on that thing. It's the kind of specialized slang that learners of English should avoid, because you are likely to sound foolish if you use it.
