Here at Dog Lover Store, we offer custom painted dog figurines. Customers are able to upload photos of their dog, select the figurine that most looks like their dog, and the artist here at Dog Lover Store custom paints the figurine to match the photos that our customers submit.
This is a custom painted Jack Russell Terrier figurine. We thought that this custom painted figurine was extra special because of the adorable heart shape that was on the back of this dog. Below, you can view the photo that our customer submitted of their Jack Russell Terrier. You can clearly see the heart shape on the back. This feature was important to our customer so we were sure to include it. Often, dogs have signature markings or features that are memorable to their owners. Many customers buy these custom painted figurines once their dog has passed. Capturing these unique markings is important when remembering and honoring a loved one.
Our figurines come pre-painted from the manufacturer so we paint over the standard paint job when we custom paint the figurines. If you look at the photo of how the standard figurine comes from the manufacturer, you will see that the brown coloring is a bit lighter and the markings on the face and body are different. Although they are just slight differences, they are significant enough to be customized.
This cutie did not have any markings on her underbelly so we painted the belly a bright white to match the rest of the coat. We added the heart on the back, brown near the tail, and also added more white to her face. Small changes make a big difference.
We have customers review the figurines so they can approve them before we apply a protective sealer and ship them out. More often than not, we have customers send back replies stating that they were brought to tears when they saw the figurine. When they are tears of joy, we know we nailed it!

Hello, I just stumbled onto your site. are you still painting terriers? If so, what is your cost Thank you
Hi Page! Yes we do still custom paint these figurines. You can go here: https://dogloverstore.com/product-category/figurines/figurines-medium/ and select the breed you are interested in, upload photos of the dog, and you’re good to go!
Can you make a figurine of a Jack Russell chihuahua mix. One ear pointed up and one down?
Hi Marcie.
Thank you for your interest in our custom painted dog figurines. But I am sorry, to create a new mold of a figurine would require design of the breed, an entirely new sculpt, and casting of a mold which costs several hundred dollars. At this time we are not offering custom figurines, rather custom painted figurines for the figurines we currently offer.
If you have any other questions, just let us know.
