How long does it take to receive my Danger Dog order?
It depends on when you order. I travel to Nepal twice yearly – usually in spring/summer and then again in October/November for holiday orders.
Can I buy more than one portrait of my pet?
You can buy all three, if you’d like. They look great in sets of two or three.
What happens to the ones I don’t buy?
They are sold at Museum shops, art galleries, boutiques, online or donated to silent auctions for good causes.
What if I don’t like any of the portraits of my pet?
Your satisfaction is guaranteed. If you don’t like any of them, you are under no obligation to buy them. The Nepali signboard artists are paid fair trade prices no matter if you buy them or not.
What is Fair Trade?
Fair Trade, to me, is paying the artists a living wage for their art. I pay them the first price that they ask, and often more. I give them raises each trip, don’t ask for a ‘discount’ when I order ten pieces, and never dicker.
Can I personalize the sign?
Yes. You can have the sign say anything you’d like. Your pet can be enlightened, happy, zen or even brazen. It is up to you. Be Aware of Dog (or Cat) is popular.
Is it possible to order things other than animals?
Sure. The artists can paint anything. They are signboard artists. Your house, your car, your children, yourself… These are all possibilities. The only limit is your imagination. The artists are even available to design movie posters.
How do I hang them?
They can be hung indoors or out. They can be put in windows or on bookcases. They can be framed or put on an easel. You can put them on your fridge with magnets. Some sample displays from the Danger Dog Blog.
