Personalized Custom Valentine Dog Portrait Shirt

A valentine dog portrait shirt that’s ridiculous in the best way

This personalized custom dog portrait shirt redraws your own dog in soft gray pencil and slides a pair of red heart-shaped sunglasses onto the snout. There’s no text at all, just the dog, printed on a tee, long sleeve, crewneck sweatshirt or hoodie.

It started as a Valentine’s design, but a dog in heart glasses is funny all year.

Upload a dog photo

Our sample is an Australian Shepherd with a big pink tongue hanging out and a fluffy white chest ruff, glasses perched right where they belong. Yours keeps its own ears, markings and goofy expression, sketched in the same style, so the dog photo shirt still looks unmistakably like your dog.

Who ends up wearing it?

Usually it’s a dog mom who already owns several dog shirts and wants one that makes people laugh. She’s also the person who signs every Valentine’s card from the dog.

A dog mom adding to her collection

She has the sweet dog shirts already, so this is the funny one she’ll pull out on February 14th.

A boyfriend who calls the dog his son

If he already calls the dog his son, wearing the kid in heart glasses is just good parenting.

A wife ordering a matching pair

Get the sweatshirt for her and a tee for him, which means the evening dog walk becomes a couple outfit.

A sister whose lab has more followers

His fans already know that face, and now she gets to wear it to brunch.

Your partner, opening a card from the dog

Let the dog sign the Valentine and hand over a shirt with his face in heart glasses.

A groomer or dog walker

They already know your pup’s best side, so a portrait of it is a thank-you they’ll get right away.

Why heart sunglasses make the funniest dog portrait

Most dog shirts are sweet when she’d rather they were funny
Valentine’s dog gear is usually a bandana the dog chews off
Generic breed prints never match her dog’s markings

A dog in heart-shaped sunglasses makes almost anyone smile, and that’s the whole point. Her own dog sketched in soft gray pencil with red heart-shaped sunglasses perched on the snout and no text at all, so the goofy expression does the work.

Photo tip: get down to your dog’s eye level and squeak a toy above the phone. You’ll get ears up and a straight-on face.

Picking the garment

Most people go with the Comfort Colors 1717 tee: garment-dyed, 6.1 oz, 100% ring-spun cotton, relaxed unisex fit, S–4XL.

Cold morning walks call for the Comfort Colors 1566 crewneck (80% ring-spun cotton, 20% polyester fleece, S–3XL) or the Comfort Colors 1567 hoodie, which adds a jersey-lined hood with matching drawcord and a pouch pocket big enough for poop bags, in S–2XL.

Normal size on the fleece reads relaxed; up one or two reads oversized. Our size guide lists every measurement.

For something between the two, the Comfort Colors 6014 long sleeve comes in S–3XL, and the pencil pup can also go on a 9018 youth tee (XS–XL) or a Rabbit Skins 3326 toddler hoodie (2T–5/6T).

Can my dog wear something other than heart sunglasses?

Not on this one. The red heart glasses are the design, so every pup gets them. That’s also why we need a photo where both eyes are visible: the glasses have to sit on something.

Does this work for a cat or a bunny?

Yes, any pet with two visible eyes in a front-facing photo can wear the heart glasses. The sketch style stays the same gray pencil look whatever the animal.

Can you sketch a famous movie dog?

No. Upload a photo of your own dog or one you have permission to use. We decline famous animals, celebrities, rappers and other public figures, plus logos, brand names and cartoon characters, and any dog portrait order built on those is canceled and refunded.
