Custom Orders
I've decided to stop doing custom work for at least a year, maybe longer. I'm focusing on new and exciting ventures in business and won't have time to devote to your sweet pets. So nothing in 2026, probably not in 2027 either. I'm sorry. If I decide I'm excited to start up again I'll let you know. Thank you for understanding.
I do have to say custom work is a challenge for me — it's waaaay more time consuming than just making my regular stock. That being said, I do enjoy making your beloved pet. I love knowing I'm creating a piece that I know will touch your heart.
I know how important your pet is to you, and in order for me to do my best work I need good pictures if possible. I like a great head shot looking right at the camera. If there are special markings on body I need to see them or have them described to me. And…it's always nice to know if your dog has a tail!
Once I get your request, I can give you a ballpark figure that we can work with.
To place an order: Email me at Pencepets@yahoo.com. Please give me an idea of what you may like — a functional piece vs "just a sculpture of my pet" — and upload good pictures. I'll do my best to get your quote quickly.
Custom Dog Pricing (cats are less)
*Shipping and tax not included.
| Size | Starting Price |
|---|---|
| 4 inch high sculpture | $99.00+ |
| 6 inch high sculpture | $120.00+ |
| 8 inch high sculpture | $145.00+ |
| 10 inch high sculpture | $165.00+ |
These are estimate prices. The "+" means depending on breed the cost may be more. Some breeds are harder to make than others — Pomeranians, Huskies, Collies, Labradoodles, Goldendoodles, German Shepherds, Australian Shepherds, Border Collies, Australian Cattle Dogs, Blue Heelers, Queensland Heelers, Red Heelers, Dachshunds, Poodles, Pekingese, Chow Chows, etc. Once I see your pictures, I can give you a better estimate. 😊
Functional pieces include: toothpick holders, business card holders, cell phone holders, pencil holders, soap dispensers on a soap dish, salt and pepper shakers, candle holders, planters, etc. If you have something else in mind, let me know. I also do larger pieces like kitchen utensil holders — price starts at $235.00 and up depending on breed.
If you're interested in just a non-functional sculpture I can do that too. Just give me an idea of pose and size. Example: a 6 inch tall sculpture can be switched to a 6 inch dog lying down — the price is the same, just a different pose.
I offer free personalization!
Thank you, Sherri Pence Milbank
