FAQ

Alpha Dogs is a small Danish business run by Honey, who is a self-taught artist with many years of experience in costume making. Alpha Dogs specializes in making one of a kind animal costumes and works with a wide variety of clients from all over the world.

Alpha Dogs opens for commissions 1 to 2 times a year and accepts a limited number of custom projects at that time. The turnaround time for these is around 1 year. In addition, throughout the year you can find artist designed Alpha Dogs suits for sale through auction or private bidding. These will be announced on the Alpha Dogs Twitter as well as the Telegram announcement channel (see links at the bottom of this FAQ).

All commission openings are announced through this website, the Alpha Dogs Twitter and the Alpha Dogs announcement channel in Telegram. Each opening there are 3 to 5 spots available for custom projects. If you are interested in a spot, you’ll need to fill out an application form for a quote. This form is available for 1 to 2 days, once it closes quotes will be mailed to the projects chosen from the application batch. If you are chosen, you’ll be asked to accept or decline the quoted price.

The following is a general pricing guide to help you get an idea of the price range for my products.

Please keep in mind: prices vary from project to project and are determined by a lot of factors such as design complexity and features requested. Look at these as a base idea of prices. The listing prices
are in EUR.

• Full costume*: 7000€ – 9000€+
  Includes head, hands, outdoor feet, tail, bodysuit
• Partial costume*: 4500€ – 6000€+
  Includes head, hands, tail
• Head only: 3500€+
  Balaclava based head made with cast foam
• Bodysuit only: 3000€-4000€ (depends on complexity)

*) It’s possible to upgrade partial costumes and full costumes with feet (both indoor and outdoor), separate arms and or leg sleeves, as well as bodysuits for an additional price.

Alpha Dogs specialises in costumes with a toony style, please check the gallery for examples.

Commissions for both fullsuits and partials, as well as head only and bodysuit only commissions are available. It’s always possible to upgrade existing suits with new and/or more parts as long as the materials needed are available, feel free to reach out to discuss.

All Alpha Dogs heads come with 3D eyes, resin noses and resin teeth as a standard. In addition, there’s a wide variety of add-ons available for custom commissions: magnetic eyelids, magnetic tongues, claws (fleece or resin), padded fingers, 5 finger hands, indoor feet/“sockpaws”, horns/antlers, spikes and extra large tails for example.

Alpha Dogs does not offer leg/body padding, moving jaws, electronics or resin/skull masks at this time.

Payment is accepted through bank transfer and most major credit/debit cards. Payment is done in EUR or DKK for Danish customers and all card payments. I do not offer payment plans on custom work and payments must be made in full before work starts.

Shipping is available world wide through PostNord. Suits are always shipped fully insured and with tracking. Shipping price is included in the price quoted to you. Note that the buyer is responsible for any applicable Customs fees, I will not put a lower value on the package.

Alpha Dogs strives to give you the perfect, comfortable fursuit that is build to last and will hold up on any adventure you choose. I am always open for questions or concerns as I understand getting a fursuit is a big investment and I want to give you the best experience possible.

We are a strong and welcoming community. Not only is the Pack active in various Telegram chats, but we also gather together at various conventions around the world. Next to that, we have an annual Pack Weekend event which is a 4-5 day social gathering for Pack Members and their +1s hosted in Denmark. Many people have formed new friendship bonds through the Pack and we look forward to welcoming you!

The company mascot is named Flicker. He is a white German shepherd and is based on my (now deceased) first dog, Flicker. You will find Flicker the mascot on all my merchandise and in art related to the company.

In loving memory
