Pet Nose Print Digital File

Our pets don’t have fingerprints, but they do have something similar - their noses. Did you know that by the time a dog is two months old, their nose pattern is established and remains the same?

When their dimples, dots, color patterns and ridges are combined with the shape of the nostril openings, it is believed to make a mark that is distinctive enough to use for dog identification.  In fact, the Canadian Kennel Club has been using dog nose prints as proof of identity since 1938!

What can you do with a digital copy?
  • Possible use with dog biometric ID app in case your dog is lost
  • Use the artwork for a nose print tattoo
  • Print copies to use for different memorial uses
  • Use for your phones wallpaper
  • Save it safely with a digital backup

While it’s not clear if a cat or other pet’s nose can be used for identification, it does make a unique keepsake of your pet. You can have a memento that is very likely to be completely unique to your pet.

It's easy to get started - just upload a current photo of your pet's nose or a photo from years past. Choose the size you'll want to print and provide a photo of your pet's nose and nose. You will receive a high-resolution .pdf and .jpg file.  Please note, colors cannot be guaranteed due to different printing setups and equipment.

Questions About NOSE Prints

How do I get my pet's nose print (take nose photo)?
Getting a good photo is crucial to achieving a high quality keepsake.

Please follow these guidelines and submit your prints promptly for a quicker turnaround time.  While it is possible to capture a pet’s print using ink or paint, it can be very messy!  Flutterbye Prints recommends that you take a photo of your pet’s paw/nose rather than try to capture the print on paper. 

  • Check your camera to ensure that it is set at a high-quality mode(1080p or higher).
  • Locate your pet in a well-lit area; outside in daylight is a great choice.
  • Try to avoid heavy shadowsover the paw/nose. Check that your head, camera or hand are not casting dark shadows. Paws are also best captured if the fur between the paws is trimmed short.
  • Hold your camera steady so that the camera is in focus. It may be easiest to have someone helping you.
  • Take several pictures to ensure you have some that are in focus.  A recommended distance from the paw to your camera is about 8-10 inches.
  • If you have multiple pets, please indicate which photo belongs to which pet.

Inkless Print Kits available at Flutterbye Prints are NOT recommended for use with pet paws/noses; they do not create clear prints in most cases.

If you prefer to try capturing your pet’s prints on paper, please refer to Using Your Own Ink and Paper.

What if my pet has passed away and I can’t take a photo of the nose?

Sadly, our furry family members aren’t able to stay with us forever.  If you have a clay imprint of your pet’s nose you can take a photo of the imprint.  Be sure that you take the photo in a well-lit area. Or you can also use the nose print show in the sample product photos.

You can submit a photo of your pet from the past, where you can clearly seethe nose.  If you are not sure if it will work, please send it to info@flutterbyeprints.com and the artist will review it and get back to you.
