27 days ago – Mon, Feb 10, 2025 at 01:02:47 PM

Hi, all!! 

Hope you’re having a great week! Can you believe that we are already on the final 3 days?! That’s right! This campaign will be completed on the 13th and I am soooo so excited to begin the process of things surveys done and everyone into production! 🐺❤️

I am 100% certain we will get Aspen unlocked, especially in the final two days, so don’t worry, Aspen fans! They will be released as a plush! Getting them unlocked after is always a plush, though, so please continue to share this campaign with your friends, family, and fans! 

I have already sent Aspen in for prototyping so I’m so excited to see how they turn out! 

New Stickers Coming! 


I am currently in the works of getting new stickers done to add as last minute add-ons so stay tuned for the next update!! 

Thank you all so much for continuing to show your enthusiasm, everyone!!!!

Adult Wolf Concept Art!
about 1 month ago – Thu, Feb 06, 2025 at 11:15:32 AM

Hi, everyone!

Hope you're having a good week! Thank you all SO MUCH for continuing to back this project and showing your love! I am so so touched by all your kind words and anticipation! You are all the best! 

Adult Wolves


Here are concept pieces for an adult Wolf I made last year, while designing the Wolf Pups! I may adjust here and there but I wanted to share with you all! It makes me so happy that you all want to see plush toys of the adults! Wolf Pup was created in order to explore more illustrations of family bonds, as well as the anxiety of big family gatherings. I had so much fun designing so many family members so I hope I can get you all excited. I would love to design plush toys of the parents, grand parents, and more!

I especially want to design a big brother wolf plush, since my own brother (only 32 years old) passed away, and I designed the character with him in mind when he was still with us. I hope these wolves can also provide you all comfort if your loved ones are not near you or no longer here.

What do you think???

If we unlock Aspen Coyote then I would love to make at least one adult as a stretch goal at $50,000 maybe? I will get an exact cost ASAP from the manufacturer! I hope to make the adults a bit large, which makes them good for cuddling!

Thank you so much, everyone! And thank you for joining the pack!!!

Character Poll Suggestions+ Fanart!
about 1 month ago – Tue, Feb 04, 2025 at 09:54:28 AM

Hi, all!

I am so happy that you guys are participating in the poll! I thought it was going to be a tie but it looks like Aspen Coyote is the clear winner! For Finn fans, don't worry, I still want to make him into a plush as well! :)

I really enjoy this series so far so I wanted to ask! Would you all like to see barn cats and farm dogs as well? Should I also expand out of forest critters or keep the forest theme? I would love to know your thoughts!!

I had several people ask about making plush toys of the adult wolves as well and the idea is really exciting to me! They would be much bigger and of course, in a different pose. Would you all be interested???

Fanart!


I am so incredibly thankful for the fanart I was shown latetly and I wanted to share them with you all too! Are they the cutest? I am so so thankful!


The incredibly talented Comfort Critters drew me not one, but two illustrations of Wolf Pup! Their style is SOOOO cute and I can't stop looking at these!! Please give them a follow on Instagram!

My dear friends at K + Co drew all the pups together and I want to cry! Look at them!! Aren't they so cute?!! K + Co was the reason why I got into animation and we were friends for so many years! They are incredibly talented and most of all, so kind! Please give their work a follow here!

Raccoon Photos + New Pups VOTING!
about 1 month ago – Fri, Jan 31, 2025 at 11:44:48 AM

Hi, all! We are SO CLOSE to unlocked Raccon, at less than $200! I believe we can unlock them today, with your help! Thank you all SO SO SO SO MUCH for supporting my campaign and my new project! This is a totally new brand of plush toys for me so I am so grateful you all took a chance with me! 

🪵 Raccoon Photos!





I got the Raccoon plush prototype and they are so so cute in person, ah! The rain made it difficult to photograph them but once things clear up, I will get photos of all the current plush friends together. I am so excited to share to you!

Also, the hood fits Raccoon perfectly! The rain making it difficult to photograph make me think about getting a raincoat made for these friends.. what do you think??

Also! Feel free to suggest names for this little friend!

🪵 New Pup Voting!


I decided to adjust the goals a bit and noticed that we can unlock a new color at $40,000! To make things fun, I wanted to introduce a new pup to the series! Please meet Finn the Fox and Aspen the Coyote! Which one would you like to see made first???

For an entirely new critter, I will be showing some concept art soon to see what you all think! :)

about 1 month ago – Mon, Jan 27, 2025 at 11:34:27 AM

Hi, everyone!

Wow, over 500 of you are here in support of this project and I am so so grateful! 

🪵 Mini Pin Unlocked!


I am soo so delighted to announce that we unlocked the FREE mini pin tier! That means any backer who pledged $15+ will automatically receive this tiny little friend in their package! If your plush toy has to stay home but you still want to bring along a friend, then this pin is perfect for you!



🪵 Raccoon Stretch Goal!


The next stretch goal is... unlocking a brand new friend.. Raccoon! They may be mischievous and pull too many pranks but Raccoon is a friend to the end! They also want to share their (totally not stolen) trinkets with you!
 
The prototype is actually on its way to me now and once it arrives, I will be taking a ton of photos to show all of you guys! <3 I hope you are all excited!

Raccoon Friend unlocks at $30,000! Can we do it before the end of the week? Let's all do our best!



🪵 And that is not all.. more friends coming!


Since we are unlocking goals quickly, I wanted to leave the next animal up to you all!

Which animal do you want to see made into a plush and join Wolf Pup & Friends?? Comment below!

In the next update, I will be making a poll with your comments to see which animal will be the next critter! In the mean time, I will begin doodling some ideas and will also share next update, as well as more color ideas for the next Wolf Pup plush!

I will also be adjusting the stretch goals a bit to see if we can unlock BOTH a new critter and new colorway for $40k-ish so.. stay tuned!

Thank you all SO MUCH for supporting this project! I am so so so so so grateful for all of you and believing in me!
