Pet Photo Guide for Custom Plush and Keepsakes
The right photo helps your custom pet plush, needle felted portrait, or memorial keepsake look more recognizable. Use this guide before ordering a custom dog plush, custom cat plush, wool pet portrait, or pet photo gift.
Best photos to upload
- A clear front-facing photo in natural light.
- A side photo that shows body shape, tail, and markings.
- Close-ups of the face, ears, eyes, nose, and special fur patches.
- Optional photos showing a favorite collar, pose, or accessory.
Photos to avoid
- Very blurry images or tiny screenshots.
- Heavy filters that change fur color.
- Photos where the face is hidden by shadows.
- Extreme angles that distort the pet’s shape.

If you only have old photos
For memorial orders, send the clearest available photos and add written notes. A meaningful image can still work even if it is not perfect.
