Back in January 2015 I personally backed the crazy and fun “Squatting Dog” Kickstarter I was glad that the Kickstarter was fully funded bring in a total of $24,844 to help bring this project to life. Having two Shiba Inu dogs and seeing a company make a weird and fun sofubi figure was a no brainer for me. Squatting Dog have now released two new colourways! Glow in the dark and the Bondage Back.

“The private moment of a squatting dog captured for eternity in a colorful figurine made of Sofubi in Japan”
“It all started with the simple idea of wanting to design something for myself. I wanted to create something that could make people smile and could never be found anywhere else and I’d feel I had truly achieved my aim when people would think this is just too cute. My concept is to capture the squatting action of a dog and freeze-frame it in colourful Sofubi, a soft Japanese vinyl material.
I used to have a Shiba dog when I was a kid. I think his squatting pose is the cutest and most touching memory I have kept of my dog.”
Both limited 50 pieces. Made in Japan Soft Vinyl. [size] body: about H165 × W230 × D120mm [weight] about 250g. Some may think this is too crazy and weird but think about other designer toys and Kaiju, Designer toys has no boundaries and c’mon its natural, everyone and everything takes a shit.
Every Squatting Dog includes a birth certificate and a family tree which is a great touch.
