Short answers to the questions dog and cat people ask us most. Every answer matches our policies; follow the links for the full detail. Cannot find yours? Email support@wooftee.shop and we will reply within 24 hours on business days.

Personalising your shirt

How do I add my pet’s name to an item?

Add the item to your cart and go to checkout. In the order notes box, write your pet’s name exactly as you want it printed, plus any short text or date the design allows. We print what you write, including capital letters and punctuation, so check the spelling before you pay.

How do I send my pet’s photo?

Paste a link to the photo in the order notes box at checkout, or write “photo by email” and reply to your order confirmation email with the photo attached. Send the original file rather than a screenshot. Production starts once we have the photo, so the sooner it arrives the sooner your order moves.

Will I see a proof or mockup before you print?

No. We do not send a proof or mockup before production. That keeps things simple and quick, but it means the order notes are your final instructions. You can change them within 24 hours of ordering — see Cancel or Change an Order.

What kind of photo prints best?

A sharp photo in daylight, taken at your pet’s eye level, with both eyes open and both ears in the frame. Avoid heavy filters, flash glare and photos where a hand, toy or another pet covers the face. Dark-coated dogs and black cats print best from photos taken outdoors or beside a bright window.

Can I put two or more pets on one shirt?

Yes, on designs made for two or more pets. Write each name in the order notes and say which photo belongs to which pet, and where each should go — for example, “Luna on the left, Ollie on the right”. Photos taken at a similar angle look best side by side.

Can I put a dog and a cat on the same shirt?

Yes. Two-pet designs work for any combination. Write both names and match each to its photo in the order notes.

Can you print my pet in the style of a famous cartoon or with a team logo?

No. We do not print characters, team marks, brand logos or other artists’ work. Your pet, your pet’s name and your own short text are what we print. See our Intellectual Property Policy.

Can I order a memorial shirt for a pet who has died?

Yes, and we will treat it with care. Choose the clearest photo you have, write the name and any dates in the order notes, and if you are unsure which photo will print best, email us a few before ordering and we will give you an honest opinion.

Can I change the wording on a design, like “Fur Mama” instead of “Dog Mom”?

Some designs can take a different title and some cannot, because the layout is built around the original words. Email us before ordering with the design and the wording you want, and we will tell you honestly whether it fits.

Can I add a date, like a birthday or gotcha day?

Yes, on designs that include a date line. Write the date in the order notes in the format you want printed — “Est. 2021”, “03.14.2019” or “Home since May 2024”.

Is there a limit to how long a name can be?

Shorter names read best across a chest; two to twelve letters is ideal. Longer names and nicknames such as “Sir Wigglesworth” can work on some designs. If you are unsure, ask us before ordering.

What if my photo is not great?

Send it anyway with a note, or email it to us before ordering. We will tell you honestly if we think it will print poorly, and suggest what a better photo would look like.

Orders and changes

Can I change or cancel my order?

Yes, within 24 hours of placing it. Email support@wooftee.shop with your order number and exactly what you want to change: the name, photo, size, colour, style, quantity or address. A confirmed cancellation is refunded in full.

I spotted a typo after 24 hours. What can I do?

Email us anyway; if your item has not been printed yet we will try to help. If it has already been printed, it is still covered by our 60-day return window with a free return label, and you can reorder with the corrected spelling.

Do I need an account to order?

No. You can check out as a guest. An account is optional and lets you see your past orders in one place.

Can I order for someone else?

Yes. Enter the recipient’s address as the shipping address and your own details as the buyer. Order and shipping emails go to you, not the recipient.

Shipping and delivery

Where do you ship?

To the United States, Canada, Australia and New Zealand only. All orders ship from the USA. See Shipping & Delivery.

How much is shipping?

Free, on every order to those four countries, with no minimum spend and no code.

How long will my order take?

Orders are processed in 1–3 business days, then spend 7–14 business days in transit, so allow roughly 8–17 business days in total. These are estimates, not guaranteed dates.

How do I track my order?

When your order ships, we email you a shipping confirmation; when the carrier provides a tracking number, it is included. You can also use our Order Tracking page with your order number and email.

Will I pay customs duties in Canada, Australia or New Zealand?

It depends on the destination country and its rules. We do not collect sales tax at checkout, and our prices do not include any import charges a destination country may apply. Check with your local customs authority if you are unsure.

My parcel is late. What should I do?

Check the tracking link if your parcel has one, then email us with your order number and what tracking shows. We reply within 24 hours on business days and look into it with you and the carrier.

Returns and refunds

Can I return a personalised item?

Yes. Every item, including shirts printed with your pet’s name, can be returned within 60 days of delivery, for any reason. See Returns & Exchanges.

Who pays for return shipping?

We do. We send a free return label for every return, including change-of-mind returns and size swaps.

How fast is my refund?

Refunds are issued within 7 days of your return reaching us, to your original payment method or as store credit if you prefer. Your bank then posts it on its own schedule. See our Refund Policy.

Does store credit expire?

No. Woof Tee store credit never expires.

How do exchanges work?

Return the original item with the free label and place a new order for the size, colour or style you want, using the same notes. The original is refunded within 7 days of the return reaching us.

What if my item arrives damaged or wrong?

Email us with photos of the item, the problem and the shipping label, plus your order number, and we will help you put it right.

Sizing, products and care

What sizes do you offer?

Most apparel comes in sizes S to 5XL, in unisex fits unless the product page says otherwise. Our Size Guide explains how to compare a garment you already own.

I am between two sizes. Which should I choose?

For a relaxed fit, size up; for a closer fit, choose the smaller size. Sweatshirts and hoodies feel snugger than a tee of the same size because of the heavier fabric. If you get it wrong, size swaps come with a free return label within 60 days.

How do I wash my Woof Tee?

Turn it inside out, wash cold with similar colours, and tumble dry low or hang to dry. Do not iron directly over the print. Exact care notes are on each product page.

Do you sell things that are not clothes?

Yes: our Pet Lover Gifts collection has mugs and other everyday gifts with your pet’s face and name.

Payment and support

Which payment methods can I use?

The methods available for your order are shown at checkout before you pay. See Payment Methods.

Do you charge sales tax?

No. Woof Tee does not collect sales tax at checkout.

How do I contact you?

By email at support@wooftee.shop. We reply within 24 hours on business days. We do not offer phone or chat support. See Contact Us.

What do you do with my pet photos?

We use them only to print your order and handle any follow-up questions, and delete them 30 days after delivery. We never post your pet without asking first. See our Privacy Policy.

Gifts and occasions

How early should I order a gift?

Count back 17 business days from the day you need it: up to 3 business days of processing plus up to 14 business days in transit. Weekends and public holidays do not count, and carriers are busier in November and December, so add a little extra for holiday gifts.

How do I get a photo of someone else’s pet without spoiling the surprise?

Ask a partner, housemate or mutual friend to send you a recent photo, or look through photos the owner has shared with you. A clear, front-facing photo in daylight works best. You can also order and send the photo by email once you have it; production waits until it arrives.

Will the recipient see the price?

Order and shipping emails go to you, the buyer, not the recipient. If you want the parcel to arrive as a surprise without prices, add a short note in the order notes and we will do what we can.

Can the recipient return or exchange a gift?

Yes. The recipient has 60 days from delivery to return or exchange it with a free return label. Refunds go to whoever paid, unless the buyer asks us to issue store credit to the recipient instead.

What makes a good Dog Mom or Dog Dad gift?

A design with the title, the dog’s name and a clear portrait. Crewnecks and hoodies are the most popular gift choices; tees suit warmer climates. Check the recipient’s usual size, and remember size swaps are free within 60 days.

The Cat Corner

Is Woof Tee only for dog people?

No. Dogs come first in our name, but the Cat Corner has shirts, sweatshirts and hoodies designed around cats from the start.

My cat will not look at the camera. Any tips?

Photograph at the cat’s eye level, near a window, while they are relaxed — on a favourite blanket or just after a meal. Wait for both eyes to be open. Several quick shots usually give you one great one.

Do cat items follow the same shipping and return rules?

Yes. Every item, dog or cat, ships free with the same 1–3 business days of processing and 7–14 business days in transit, and can be returned within 60 days with a free label.
