controller_path(object) is returning website.com/controller.1

I have manually created a new View for an existing scaffolded Model in my Rails app because, well I thought that was the point, I can create multiple views for the same Model. Everything seems to function fine except that when I try to link_to an item in the view then Rails gives me the wrong URL.

• routes.rb has the proper "resources :controller"
• controller_controller.rb exists and works fine
• views/controller/show.html.erb exists and works fine
• link_to "controller", controller_path #works fine

link_to "controller", controller_path(object) # links to controller but adds the id as ".id" instead of "/id"

Any ideas why?

rake routes output

pups     GET /开发者_高级运维pups(.:format)          {:action=>"index", :controller=>"pups"} 
         POST /pups(.:format)         {:action=>"create", :controller=>"pups"} 
new_pup  GET /pups/new(.:format)      {:action=>"new", :controller=>"pups"}

         DELETE /pups/:id(.:format)   {:action=>"destroy", :controller=>"pups"}

Make sure your link_to is using pup_path(object) and not pups_path(object) (plural).
