We do not keep a catalog of pets. Your keepsake is built from your own photograph, so it could not belong to anyone else — and could not be made twice.
The details that make a pet a specific animal are the ones we keep: the coat pattern, the ear shape, the years they were here. Those are what get rendered, not a generic breed.
Nothing enters production until you have seen the artwork and said yes. If the crop or the lettering is wrong, it is corrected first. A keepsake is not worth rushing.
Every PODPAWS piece is produced for a single animal. When they are gone, the record that they were here stays.
