  • Canvas Material: FSC-certified wood stretcher bars, cotton-polyester blend (300-350gsm, 350-400 microns)
  • Sustainable Wood: FSC-certified or locally sourced poplar or pine.
  • High-Quality Printing: Long-lasting, vibrant colors.
  • Hanging Kit: Your framed canvas print will arrive ready to hang, with all necessary hanging hardware included for a hassle-free experience.
  • Packing for shipping: Framed canvas prints are securely packed with corner protection and protective plastic to ensure safe delivery.
  • Frame Dimensions: The width (the front of the frame) is 9 to 14 mm wide (0.35" to 0.55") and 32 mm (1.26") thick. A 12 mm (0.45") gap between the canvas and frame ensures a snug fit.

Tips for checking the suitability of an existing picture:

Because smaller canvases (like 8x10) are viewed up close, staying closer to the ideal (300 DPI) target prevents blurriness. For a larger canvas (like 16x20), the minimum (150 DPI) standard will still look good from a normal viewing distance though we would recommend 300 DPI.


Here is how to quickly check your photo's resolution directly from your phone.

On an iPhone (iOS 15 or newer)
  1. Open the Photos app.
  2. Tap the photo you want to check.
  3. Swipe up on the photo (or tap the "i" (info) icon at the bottom of the screen).
  4. Look at the text box below the date and time. You will see numbers like 12MP followed by the exact resolution (e.g., 3024 × 4032).
On an Android Phone
  1. Open the Google Photos app (or your phone's default Gallery app).
  2. Tap the photo you want to check.
  3. Swipe up on the photo (or tap the three dots in the top right corner).
  4. Look under the Details or Info section. You will see the resolution listed in pixels (e.g., 4000 x 3000 or 12 MP).
Tip for taking a new picture:
  1. You will need to take a high resolution image of your dog. It is recommended to use the light coloured background option for darker dogs.
  2. Take a photo of your dog from the front or slightly to the side, from as close as possible.
  3. Crouch down to your dog's eye level rather than take the shot from overhead.
  4. If taking the photo outside try and photograph in open shade or overcast light so avoid sun glare.
  5. Include your whole dog in the picture, so you can crop the photo to how you want it.
  6. Make sure the picture is clear and not blurry
  7. Be careful of backgrounds which are the same colour as your dog. If your phone’s software can’t tell what is background, and what is dog, you may get parts of the background very sharp/in focus around the edges of the dog.
  8. Take multiple photos to make sure the eyes are in focus. Tap on the screen to tell the phone where to focus but don’t rely on that only! Phone cameras love to focus on the nose of the dog, especially when we are quite close to them. The nose is then the closest thing to the camera, and it’s usually shiny (contrast!) which sensors are easily able to grab onto and focus on.
  9. There is free background-removal software available you can use to leave you with a picture of your pet with a transparent background. This can then be mounted onto the picture template. If you're having an issue getting your image exactly how you would like it please send an email to info@hobbster.co.uk
