A memorial video for your dog, any time of year
A dog memorial video is a short tribute made from a photo of your dog. Ours is AI-generated: from a single picture, the model draws your dog into a scene and animates it for 10 seconds — walking, wagging, looking up at you. It is not real footage and does not pretend to be; it is a way to see them move once more, in a setting made for remembering.
The scenes come from the Mexican Day of the Dead, where families scatter marigold petals so the souls they love can find the way home. You do not have to observe the holiday to use them. People make these videos on the day their dog died, on the first anniversary, on a birthday, or when a friend loses their dog and they want to send something kinder than a card.

Which scene suits your dog?

Marigold Bridge
Best for most dogs. Your dog walks toward you along a glowing road of petals — the closest thing to watching them come running when you got home.

A Gentle Guide
Your dog walks through a marigold field beside a glowing Xoloitzcuintli, the Mexican dog said to guide souls. Chosen by people who like the idea that their dog was not alone on the way.

Candlelight
A calm close portrait: your dog resting among candles, breathing slowly, then lifting their head to look at you. Good for senior dogs and a very recent loss.

The Ofrenda
Your dog sits beside a candlelit home altar with marigolds and papel picado. A digital dog ofrenda you can share or play next to their photo.
Choosing the photo
- A standing or walking photo gives the most natural walk. A sitting photo works well for Candlelight and The Ofrenda.
- Make sure the face is clear and not cut off. Ears, muzzle and markings are what make the result look like your dog.
- One dog per photo. For two dogs, make one video each — the 2+ pets pack covers every scene for both.
- Phone photos are fine. Very dark or blurry photos give the AI less to work with; if the first result is off, every video includes one free re-creation.
Ways to use it
- Post it on the anniversary or on Instagram, TikTok or Facebook — it is vertical 9:16, made for phones.
- Send it to the family or friends who loved your dog too.
- Play it on a tablet next to their collar, photo or urn.
- Make one for a friend who lost their dog, with their permission and a photo they chose.

Frequently asked questions
Can I make a memorial video if my dog died years ago?
Yes. Any clear photo works, old or new. Many people make one for a dog they lost long ago, on an anniversary or when a photo resurfaces.
Will it really look like my dog?
The AI keeps your dog’s coat, markings and face from the photo, but it is generated imagery, so small details can differ. Check the free still preview first; each video also includes one free re-creation.
Does the video have music?
No, it is silent so you can add a song or your own voice when you share it, for example in Instagram or TikTok.
How much does a dog memorial video cost?
The still preview is free once a day. One 10-second video is $9.99; packs for all four scenes or for two pets are on the pricing page. It is a one-time payment, not a subscription.
