Paper Pups - Origami Dog Kit

At last, after 2 attempts to buy cheaper copies of this,I’ve bought the real thing from Pikkii.
These are printed on BOTH sides ,WITH faces on GOOD QUALITY paper.
Don’t buy the substandard copies!

Nice concept. Absurdly hard to follow for an adult let alone a child.

There is no video available when you scan for the easy video instructions. I feel for the amount of money I paid there should be clear instructions and should be a relaxing enjoyable creation. I was in London England recently and was attracted to the orgami dogs as something to do creatively. The packaging looked good quality and I purchased it in a very lovely store in London so never thought twice that it was nothing more than quality. It is just pure frustration and a money grab. No clear instructions.

The little dogs are adorable. They are not easy to make, but I am up for the challenge! What I am not up for: getting interrupted by ads every 20 seconds, the print wears while you fold the paper so the final product always looks worn, and the paper pamphlet is useless. I purchased this item from PaperSource (for a premium sadly) to lower my screen time, but I can’t make the dogs without watching the video because the instructions have multiple errors. The video is riddled with ads because it’s on YouTube.

Received these as a gift and based on the quality and reviews am pretty sure that they are a legitimate product. As others have noted, the written instructions are impossible to follow (steps are missing and included steps are poorly worded, steps do not always match diagrams and diagrams sometimes are physically impossible). The updated video is much more helpful but in my opinion should NOT include ads-- as is, the instructions are frequently interrupted which makes following along annoying.

Pros: paper is high quality and the idea is cute! The puppies I made while following the video instructions are very fun and I especially like the Yorkie/Cavapoo. The printed fur and faces really elevate the origami shapes.

Suggestions: PLEASE include ALL STEPS in written instructions and user test them with non-experts, and please make sure the diagrams match the written instructions and that the angles of the paper match what is actually possible. Please note which side is the face side in the included diagrams (and possibly note where they eyes are oriented?). Finally, I think the puppies should be split into multiple different pack options by difficulty.

It should be a simple fun oragami project, however, the paper instructions tell you to start with the PIKKII logo facing upright. Why, then, after following all the instructions did my dog not have a face?!? I went back to make sure I had followed the instructions correctly, which I had, which then forced me to cross reference the instructions in the booklet with the online YouTube video instructions. Sure enough, the very first instruction on the video completely counters the instructions in the booklet. Start with the dogs face up right. VERY ANNOYING AND CONFUSING. Now I have 50 dogs with no faces and my nephew is crying.
