Pristine Doge Finder

Since early September 2021 every "The Doge Pound" NFT has been able to mint a free puppy at https://thedogepoundnft.com/puppy. Most of the doge puppies have been minted and can be seen here. The OGs are the original 10,000 Doge NFTs. The Pristines are the OGs that have not minted their puppies yet. The supply of Pristines can only go down over time. 

Click the button above that says "See list of Pristine Doges Now." This will generate a list of Pristine Doges that are for sale. There are additional Pristines that are not for sale and do not appear on that list. *Important* Please remember to check https://thedogepoundnft.com/puppy in order to verify that the crate for the Pristine is unopened before purchase. 

• When you own a Pristine you have the leisure of minting your pup when you like, or never. If there ever comes a time when having an OG + minted pup exceeds the value of having a Pristine, you can decide to mint at your leisure and take advantage of those benefits. 
• For purposes of qualifying for promo drops, staking, etc. Pristines count as an OG + a puppy. So you will not need to buy both separately.
• Many people buy Pristines in hopes of minting a rare puppy. 
• The floor price for a Pristine is usually higher than the price of a floor OG + floor pup - meaning Pristines generally retain their value better than OG + pup.
• The developers have hinted that they may do special promotions to reward Pristine holders in the future.

You need either an OG Doge + pup in the same wallet (IDs DO NOT have to match) OR a Pristine to qualify for the holiday drops. 

You DO NOT need a Pristine to participate in Diamond Paws. The Diamond Paws refers to ensuring that you do not have any OG Doges, Pristines, or pups listed for sale during the wallet snapshot. The developers have not revealed when that snapshot will take place nor what the benefits of the diamond paws will be.

Some believe that at some point Pristines will become like collector's items. Take a look at this link (headline: Unopened copy of Super Mario Bros. sells for a record $2 million) to see how keeping an item unopened can really increase its value over time.

Christies is a prominent auction house that has recently begun to auction NFTs. Some of us Pristy-maxis like to dream that one day we will see our beloved Pristines included in one of these auctions. Pristies at Christies - has a nice ring to it doesn't it?

The Doge Pound Launchpad is a benefit of holding a OG Doge (found here). The launchpad gives benefits such as:
Whitelist access to upcoming NFT launches
3-D Doges with accompanying exclusive music
Access to Doge Pound merchandise
Access to Doge Pound events, such as the Vegas party when TDP hits 10 ETH floor

As of the now (Oct. 16, 2021) you just need to own an OG Doge in order to qualify for whitelist benefits. Though you DO NOT need to own a puppy for whitelist benefits, you may need to own both an OG and a puppy, or a Pristine, in order to secure certain other benefits – such as the holiday drops.

As a holder of and OG Doge you will have access to the launchpad, which is continuously under development.

Many projects will have enough NFTs to effectively guarantee every OG holder the chance to mint at least one NFT. Other launches may have fewer NFTs available and may go to a first come, first served system or a raffle system. But however you slice it, its better to be on the inside track as an OG holder than to be a part of the public engaging in gas wars. 

In order to see the LaunchPad section of the Doge Pound discord, you must first buy an OG Doge, then verify your ownership through the discord server. Then, the LaunchPad section will appear.
