Hey guys!! Gues what?? Scruff Puppies are here!! <3
I'm already starting to pack up and ship out the UK orders first, then the rest of the world, with the US orders being last on my list as theres over 60% of backers being in the US ^^
I'm so excited to announce the full launch of these puppies, and I'm already planning more dog breeds to add. I can't believe after 100+ breeds, theres still SOOO MANY I havent got yet. I've been sharing some of the designs over on my tiktok so hop over there if you'd like to see some more of the keyrings in action and wagging! <3
Pop over to my Instagram or tiktok to see videos of all the designs and the unpacking process^^
Scruff Puppies are due in around the end of March/Beginning of April, so I am planning on locking the surveys and charging cards on the 16th of March!!
This means that you won't be able to edit your survey after this date, and that your card will be charged for the shipping and any add ons around then! This also gives any failed backers a chance to fix their card info by this date and still lock in for their rewards!
I've bene hard at work setting up the shop for the big launch, which should be going LIVE as soon as all the Backerkit pledges are sent out around Mid April!
So sorry for how long surveys have taken. I've always used Kickstarter in the past and Backerkits survey set up is much more complicated to learn, but I think ive got it all figures out!!
I've sent out the Smoke Test, so 5% of you should receive the survey. If there are no issues, the rest of the surveys will be going out tonight!! <3
The Scruff Puppies are ALL MADE!! and have been shipped out to me already!! So, I'm hoping to recieve them by Mid March. You can still add things in the surveys, I've ordered much more than I need for this campaign, but if there is a HUGE influx of preorders there may be a wait until restock in another few months,
Where am I even going to store ALLL OF THESEE???
Look at ALL THE STICKERS!! (I reordered my Pony stickers too teehee))
Custom Puppies!
To everyone who ordered a custom Scruff Puppy, I will be contacting you all to start discussing the custom keyring! I will be ordering the custom ones hopefully around March/April, and also ordering any restocks I need after fulfilling the Backerkit <3 If any of you have socials like discord or Instagram, please reach out to me there!! Its much easier for m to communicate through DM's there!!
Failed Charges
Sadly, I had quite a large number of failed pledges, so if any of you had a failed charge I think you can fix this in your payment settings ? I'm not too sure if its too late now and there's a set time limit to fix them, but if so Scruff Puppies will be up for sale on my website soon right after I've got all the Backerkit pledges fulfilled <3
Theres 8 days to go for Scruff Puppies and they're already in production!! LOOK!! They're hot off the presses!
Soon the backerkit will end and I will be fast at work preparing for my Pintopia project that I havent even started sharing yet!! We're starting 2026 busy! I am also going to London for Megacon, so I will be very very busy!! <3 I will ne enjoying maybe 2 or 3 days over Christmas, and then I will be hard at work drawing and creating my roadmap for 2026 because I have so many plans!!
If any of you havent seen on Instagram, I am running a GIVEAWAY!! It is for a custom scruff puppy, so if you have any friends with unique dogs that arent part of the lineup yet, let them know and tag them over there and they might win <3
I just wanted to thank you all so much for your pledges and support with this project. It was veryt daunting taking on such a huge venture, but I really really love this collection and feel like its the direction I want to take Bilby Bloom in the future! Eventually I want to add on Cats, Wildlife, and even other domesticated pets! Who knows, maybe eventually I will have Scruff Puppies of every animal ever!! Scruff Kitties, Scruff Cubs, Scruff Pets, Scruffimals? Who knows!!
Anyway, turns out i miscounted how many designs I had. I thought I had 269, but i only had 268, so I got to draw one more puppy for the factory to make! So, which breed did I choose?
The White Swiss Shepherd!
This lil guy will be available to choose along with all the other dogs on the current lineup!!
