For the first year

A puppy first year book, made from your photos

The first year goes fast. The car ride home, the first bath, the chewed shoe, the day they finally grew into their collar. A puppy first year book from ourTailTales turns all those photos into a hardcover you will be glad you made.

Make their book. It’s free

Free to make and read. Hardcover from $69.99 $52.49, 25% off until November 30.

A printed hardcover pet book standing on a bedside table, with a small dog named Gracie on the cover.

You drop in the photos from that first year, in any order. We sort them into chapters by the times and places they happened, then write a short story for each one. You can edit the words, choose the cover photo and move pictures around before you order.

Sweet Treats is made for this book. Cupcakes, sprinkles, balloons and bunting, for the playful, zoomy one.

It makes a lovely new puppy gift, too. Make it for a friend from the photos they send you, or give it at the one-year mark when there is a full year to fill. You need at least 25 usable photos for the hardcover, and you can read a free preview before you order.

Good questions

Questions, answered

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 make it before the first year is over?

Yes. Make it whenever you have at least 25 usable photos. Chapters follow the times and places in your photos, so a smaller album simply makes shorter chapters.

Can I give it as a new puppy gift?

Yes. Make it from photos you have of the puppy and have the hardcover sent to them, anywhere in the United States.

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.

Let’s get it out and onto paper, where it belongs.
