Well the fascinating thing is that, in a way, if he really wanted to interview Kage, he would have been the only one sans fursuit to present. So in a way, the film director did try to get someone without a suit.
Regardless, after the first half of the film most of the furries are sans suit with the exception of the raccoon for the reasons stated in the article.
While it certainly wasn't Dominick's intent based on his article interviews, choosing to focus on individuals who owned a suit may have worked narratively for his film in this way. When showing this to a non-furry audience it introduces them in the suit, the stereotype in which they see most furries, but when the second half roles around the suits are typically off as they talk about the deeper things they think about in regards to the fandom.
To the non-furry audience I think that makes it easier to understand that there's more to a furry than their suit. That there's something deeper there. And when you do that, introducing the fact that there are furries that don't have suits becomes a thing.
Grix even notes at the start of the film that, particularly in its infancy, not a lot of furries had fursuits.
