What’s new for this Kickstarter?
Three items! - An exclusive Kickstarter edition of the first boxed expansion for Dog Park, Dog Park: New Tricks. The KS Edition includes a Collector’s Upgrade Pack and a Backer Bundle featuring the Kickstarter Wilds promo pack and a few extra goodies to be revealed over the course of the campaign. - The Dogs of the World card expansion pack. - The Dog Park Puzzle – 128 Good Dogs: Can You Identify Them All? This Kickstarter also includes the Collector’s Edition of the Dog Park base game. After this campaign, we do not have any firm future plans to reprint the Collector’s Edition again, so if you want a copy, now is the time.

You can enter our Kickstarter Wilds draw! The Kickstarter Wilds will feature backer dogs and never-seen-before abilities. All backers are invited to submit one dog of their choice into the Wilds draw (see Update #2 for more details) and we’ll be revealing the chosen Wilds over the course of the campaign (see Events Calendar on the Kickstarter page for dates).

Will this Kickstarter feature foreign language editions?
It will not. We hope to announce localisation deals for Dog Park: New Tricks and Dogs of the World soon, but only the English language edition available on this Kickstarter will feature the Kickstarter Edition of New Tricks and the Collector’s Edition of Dog Park.

Will New Tricks and Dogs of the World fit in the Dog Park base box?
Dogs of the World will fit in the base box, along with European Dogs and Famous Dogs. However, New Tricks has its own box due to the size of the expansion and number of components.

What size are the cards? Will the New Tricks box have room for sleeves?
Dog Park has two card sizes: Standard playing card size (2.5 x 3.5 inches) and Mini Euro cards (1.75 x 2.5 inches).
Both the Dog Park base game and New Tricks have been designed to accommodate 40-60 micron sleeves.

Are local taxes and VAT/GST/HST included in the price?
As we will be shipping Dog Park to backers all over the world, it’s not possible to include local taxes in the price as it differs from country to country. Local taxes will be added in the Pledge Manager after the campaign. So if for example, you are in the UK or the EU you will be required to pay roughly 20% VAT in the Pledge Manager.

What is BackerKit?
BackerKit is a service that crowdfunded project creators use to keep track of hundreds to tens of thousands of backers—from shipping details, pledge levels, preferences and quantities, whether they have paid or had their card declined, special notes, and everything in between!
The BackerKit software and support team is independent from the campaign’s project team—BackerKit does not handle the actual reward shipping. For more information about the preparation or delivery status of your rewards, please check the project's updates page.
How does BackerKit work?
After the campaign ends, the project creator will send you an email with a unique link to your survey. You can check out a walkthrough of the process here.
I never received my invitation. How do I complete the survey?
The most common reasons for not receiving a survey email is that you may be checking an email inbox different from the email address you used to sign up with Kickstarter, Indiegogo or Tilt Pro account, or it may be caught in your spam filter.
Confirm that the email address you are searching matches the email address tied to your Kickstarter, Indiegogo, or Tilt Pro account. If that doesn’t work, then try checking your spam, junk or promotions folders. You can also search for "backerkit” in your inbox.
To resend the survey to yourself, visit the project page and input the email address associated with your Kickstarter, Indiegogo or Tilt Pro account.
How do I update my shipping address?
BackerKit allows you to update your shipping address until the shipping addresses are locked by the project creator. To update your address, go back to your BackerKit survey by inputting your email here.
When will my order be shipped, charged or locked?
That is handled directly by the project creator. BackerKit functions independently of the project itself, so we do not have control of their physical shipping timeline. If you want to check on the project’s status, we recommend reading over the project's updates page.
I completed the survey, but haven't received my rewards yet. When will they arrive?
As BackerKit does not actually handle any rewards or shipping, the best way to stay updated on the shipping timeline would be to check out the project's updates page.
