for dog people
A gift for someone whose whole personality is their dog.
You know the one. The dog is in their profile picture, on their keyring, and in most of what they say. Which makes them easy to shop for and impossible to surprise, because every dog gift on the internet is the dog printed flat on an object.
Send one photo of that specific dog. About fifteen seconds later you have two portraits of them, free. A few minutes after you order you have a link to send: their dog on the screen, turning, with your message under it, and a button that stands it on a real table.
- built from their own dog, not the breed
- ready a few minutes after you order
- nothing ships, no address needed
- opens in any phone browser
What makes it different from every other dog gift.
It is their dog, not the breed
A cocker spaniel on a card is a cocker spaniel. This model is built from your photo, so the markings, the ear set and the shape are the ones they recognise across a park.
It stands in the room
Through the phone camera it sits on a real table and stays where it is put. They will walk around it and photograph it, and then they will send that photo to somebody else.
You see it before you pay
The two portraits are drawn from your photo, free, before any payment. You only order once the likeness is there, so nobody buys blind.
Three steps and about ten minutes.
- 01
Pick a photo of the dog
Standing, side on, daylight, whole body in frame. That is the ideal, and a normal phone snapshot is what most of the gallery came from.
- 02
Choose from two free portraits
About fifteen seconds later the dog is drawn both ways: Real and Figurine. You choose before you spend anything.
- 03
Order, then send the link
The 3D is built after you order and takes a few minutes. After that it is a link, so you send it however you normally message them.
Dogs built from ordinary snapshots.
The original photo is on the front of every card. Tap it and the 3D takes its place, so you can compare the two directly. None of these were corrected by hand.

What dog owners ask.
My photo has a black dog in it
Dark fur is the hardest case, because the pipeline reads shape out of light and there is very little of it to read. Outdoors in daylight is much better than indoors. The free portraits show you before you pay.
Half the dog is out of frame
Then we fill in the rest, and filling in is guesswork. It is the biggest single cause of a dearling that is not quite them, so a photo with all four legs in it is worth going to find.
There is another dog in the photo
It is easier if there is not. When there is more than one animal we pick one and we tell you we did, so upload a photo of just them if you have one.
What if their dog has died
This works the same way, and there is a quieter version of the gift page for it with no confetti and softer wording. The practical thing to know is that older photos are often small ones, and small photos are harder to build from.

Questions people ask.
Does it work for any breed?
Any dog. Long coats, flat faces and very small breeds all build. A heavily cropped photo hurts the result far more than an unusual breed does.
What photo works best?
Standing, side on, in daylight, taken at the dog eye level, with the whole body in frame. If that is not what you have, upload what you have and look at the free portraits before deciding.
How long does it take?
Portraits in about fifteen seconds. The 3D is built after you order and takes a few minutes. Under ten minutes end to end is normal, which is why this works for a birthday you remembered tonight.
What do they actually get?
A private link. They pull a ribbon and the dog is there turning with your message under it. Then they can stand it on a real table through the camera, print a card at home, and send you a thank you back.
Do they need an app?
No. Safari on iPhone, Chrome on Android, nothing to install and no account to make. A gift that asks somebody to install something is a gift most people never open.
Can I do two dogs?
One dog per dearling today, because the funnel takes a single photo. If there are two in the house, make the one that is unmistakably theirs first.
How much is it?
From 12.90 EUR, paid once, after you have seen the two portraits. Nothing renews and there is nothing to cancel.
What if it comes out wrong?
Tell us and we build it again. The free portraits exist so that most of the time you find out before you have paid anything at all.
Give the dog person the actual dog.
One photo, two portraits that cost nothing, then a link you can send tonight.
