“Some people smile when they see their pet on stone. Some people cry. That’s when I know I got it right.”

Your dog deserves better than a generic photo frame.

Not just a picture on a shelf…
but something that actually feels like them.

Hi, I’m Bob Dorough—owner of WoofWerks Laser Arts. And yes, this is a one-man operation. Every piece you see here is created by me, start to finish.

 

Every order begins with your photo.

Not a stock image. Not a template.
Not something “close enough.”

Your pet.

 

There’s a lot of “custom” out there that’s really just a button click.

That’s not what this is.

Every portrait is made by hand—carefully shaped and refined to create a carved-in-stone look while preserving the exact details that made your dog yours.

The markings. The expression.
The little things nobody else would notice…

but you would.

No shortcuts. No auto-generators. No guesswork.

 

 

Why People React the Way They Do

I’ve had people hug me when they pick these up.
I’ve had customers go quiet for a second… then tear up.

Sometimes it’s a gift. Sometimes it’s a memory. Either way—it matters.

And I treat it that way every single time.

 

“I wasn’t expecting to cry… but wow.”
— Actual customer

 

 

Where This Comes From

Before WoofWerks and now, I've spent over 30 years as a professional broadcast video editor.

My job is telling stories through images—finding the details that make something feel real.

Now I just do it differently...

 

Instead of something you watch…

it’s something you can hold.

 

 

What You Actually Get

Each piece is:

Designed individually from your photo

Transformed into a deep, carved-stone style portrait

Laser engraved directly into natural slate for a permanent finish

Sealed for durability and contrast

 

 

No two are ever the same—because no two dogs are.

 

“It looks exactly like him. I can’t stop staring at it.”

— WoofWerks customer

 

 

One More Thing

This isn’t mass-produced.
It’s not rushed.
And it’s definitely not outsourced.

When you place an order, you’re trusting me with something important.

And I don’t take that lightly.

If you’ve got a photo you love…
I’ll turn it into something you’ll never want to put down.
