About
Alpha Dog Advisors provides discretionary portfolio management and financial planning to individual clients — including both high-net-worth and non-high-net-worth households — and also works with employer plan sponsors. The firm delivers planning and cash‑flow analysis via a third‑party platform and assists with estate‑planning coordination and tax‑oriented strategies.
The firm follows a hybrid income-and-principal‑protection approach that centers on negotiated structured notes with built‑in downside features and a laddered maturity strategy, supplemented by equities, ETFs and alternative products available to accredited investors. Portfolio construction is driven by a proprietary rules‑based Analysis System and a long‑term price‑to‑free‑cash‑flow research framework, with tactical hedging (including inverse ETFs and paired‑equity selections) to limit drawdowns.
Distinctive aspects include managing and licensing model portfolios for other registered advisers and plan sponsors and offering insurance products through field marketing organizations, arrangements the firm discloses as potential conflicts of interest due to third‑party compensation. The brochure also discloses that the firm consented to a 2024 SEC order addressing certain marketing, recordkeeping and compliance deficiencies and has undertaken remedial actions.

Not sure where to start?
We'll help you think it through—whether you ultimately need an advisor or not. Warmer helps you compare advisors clearly, so you can choose with confidence.
For advisor listings, we rely on sources including public filings and data provided by advisors, and we cannot guarantee that all information is current or accurate. Advisors are independent and may not have reviewed or updated this information. Please review an advisor’s Form ADV and do your own diligence before deciding whether to work with them.
Advisor matching and introductions are provided by FinanceHQ LLC (“FHQ”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of Warmer and an SEC-registered investment advisor. We receive compensation from certain participating advisors for introductions or referrals. This creates a conflict of interest because we have an incentive to recommend advisors who compensate us, including those who pay us more. You pay no fee to use our matching service, and advisor fees are not increased because of a referral or introduction. We do not review the ongoing performance of advisors, manage or hold assets, guarantee performance, or provide advice about specific investments.
By using our service, you agree to our Terms of Service and Advisory Agreement, and acknowledge our Privacy Policy. Please review FHQ’s ADV Part 2A and Form CRS. Logos provided by Logo.dev
