Doge Pound Roundup: AI Characters, Doge of the Month, And More
Weekly roundup and everything happening in Doge Pound world for the week ending 16th April
It’s been an exciting week at The Doge Pound, and here is another roundup full of news and updates. We are thrilled to share our first look at a 100% fully AI-generated doge voice, text, and body animation. It is top-notch innovation, and we are looking forward to sharing more in the future.
We’ve announced our new Doge of the Week and are excited to provide heavy discounts on NGMI Lab’s annual packages to all our holders. The Jarritos competition ended recently, and we are running a poll in our Discord to decide the winner. All this and more as we round up the week. Let’s go.
AI Characters and 3D Doges
We are constantly experimenting and innovating to build our 3D characters, making them feel authentic. Last week, AMGI Studios released the first look at a 100% fully AI-generated Doge voice, text, and body animation.
Experience it for yourself in this video.
Our team is incredibly talented and constantly innovating. Not many companies know how to accomplish live animation with characters and make them look genuine. We are excited to be ahead of the curve and confident we will build a remarkable brand in the years to come.
We are also working on gamifying the 3D Doge rollout so the active members can get their 3D Doges first. Here’s a BTS of our team working on the 3D Doges.
Doge of The Month
Doge of the Month is a title for members of our community who go above and beyond for others.
Our second Doge of the Month goes to Bairdi, an incredible member of the Doge pound community who is always supportive and welcoming to others.
Bairdi has been an active member over the last couple of years, providing feedback and inputs to the team whenever required. He always has the best intentions for the holders. We thank him for his continued support and for being such a valuable part of our community.

We also want to continue our efforts in expanding our shelter, helping as many dogs as possible.
We plan to continue growing our long-term IP and executing our vision to become the go-to Web3 dog brand. We are here for the long term and are excited to build The Doge Pound brand for years to come. Stay tuned for more.
