For remembering your dog
A dog memorial book made from your photos
Your camera roll already holds their whole life. The first night home, the long walks, the naps in the sun, the gray coming in around the muzzle. A dog memorial book from ourTailTales gathers those photos into one hardcover you can keep on the shelf and open whenever you miss them.
Free to make and read. Hardcover from $69.99 $52.49, 25% off until November 30.
You drop in the photos you have, in any order. We sort them into chapters by the times and places of their life, then write a short story for each one in warm, simple words. You can change any title, any line and the order of the photos before anything is printed.
The Forget-Me-Not design was made for remembering: a soft sky, little stars and forget-me-nots, with nothing heavy or dark. Wildflower Meadow suits a dog who lived for the park and the open fields.
It can be a dog memorial gift, too. If a friend has lost their dog and you have photos of them, you can make the book and have the hardcover sent to their door. There is no rush. Save the free preview to an account and come back to it when you are ready.

Good questions
Questions, answered
Can I make one for a dog who has passed?
Yes. When you start, you tell us whether they are still with you. If they are not, their story is written as a book of remembering, and the Forget-Me-Not design is suggested first. You can still choose any design you like.
How many photos do I need?
At least 25 usable photos for the hardcover. Each chapter uses 5 to 30 photos, so a bigger album fills more chapters without repeating a picture.
Can I change the words?
Yes. After we draft the chapters, you can change the titles, the opening words, the order of the photos and the cover photo before you order.
Can I see the book before I pay?
Yes. Add your photos and we build a free preview in minutes. The first 10 pages are free to read, and the whole book opens with a free account. No credit card needed. Only order the hardcover once you have read it and love it.
How much does the hardcover cost?
$69.99 covers the hardcover and its first 5 chapters, with the digital PDF included. During our launch sale, every hardcover is 25% off until November 30, so it starts at $52.49. Longer stories can add chapters. Making the book and reading the preview are free. Shipping is added at checkout, and we ship within the United States.
Their story is still in your camera roll.
