Frequently Asked Questions
What is the EOP Legacy Forest?
The EOP Legacy Forest is a permanent, online memorial gallery created by K9 Hearts where dogs are honored through custom Legacy Portraits. Each portrait is commissioned by a pet parent and placed in the gallery forever — creating a living digital forest that grows with every dog added.
What is an EOP Legacy Portrait?
An EOP Legacy Portrait is a custom piece of art created by K9 Hearts to commemorate a beloved dog. Each portrait is professionally crafted and permanently displayed in the End of Paw Prints Legacy Forest gallery, honoring the dog's life and legacy for all time.
How do I add my dog to the EOP Legacy Forest?
To add your dog to the EOP Legacy Forest, commission an EOP Legacy Portrait through K9 Hearts. Once your portrait is complete, your dog receives a permanent place in the gallery. You'll need to submit a clear photo of your dog and complete the commission process on the K9 Hearts website.
Is placement in the EOP™ Legacy Forest really permanent?
Yes. Every dog honored with an EOP Legacy Portrait receives permanent placement in the EOP Legacy Forest gallery. K9 Hearts is committed to maintaining the gallery indefinitely so that every honored dog rests there forever, regardless of when the portrait was commissioned.
Can anyone visit the EOP™ Legacy Forest gallery?
Yes, the EOP Legacy Forest is open for anyone to visit at any time. You don't need to have a dog in the gallery to browse, pay your respects, or leave a light for any dog resting in the forest. It is a global, public memorial.
What does 'Leave a Light' mean in the EOP™ Legacy Forest?
“Leave a Light” is a feature of the EOP Legacy Forest that allows any visitor to honor a dog in the gallery — even if you didn't know the dog personally. It is a way to acknowledge a dog whose story moved you, similar to lighting a candle at a memorial. Anyone can leave a light for any dog in the forest.
Can I add a dog who passed away years ago?
Yes. The EOP Legacy Forest welcomes dogs who passed away at any time — whether recently or years ago. Many pet parents find it healing to finally give a dog a permanent resting place, even long after their loss. As long as you have a photo of your dog, you can commission an EOP Legacy Portrait.
What photo do I need to submit for an EOP™ Legacy Portrait?
A clear, high-resolution photo of your dog works best — one that shows their face and captures their personality. K9 Hearts will guide you through the submission process when you begin your commission. The better the photo, the more true to life your portrait will be.
Is the EOP™ Legacy Forest only for dogs who have recently passed?
No. The EOP Legacy Forest is open to all dogs — whether they passed recently, years ago, or even dogs who are still living but whose owners want to prepare a legacy tribute. Every dog who earned the love of a devoted owner deserves a permanent place in the forest.
What is End of Paw Prints (EOP™)?
End of Paw Prints (EOP™) is a program created by K9 Hearts to help pet owners memorialize their dogs and process grief through meaningful, lasting tributes. The EOP Legacy Forest is one part of this program, offering a permanent digital gallery where dogs are honored through commissioned Legacy Portraits.
How is the EOP Legacy Forest different from other pet memorial websites?
Unlike typical pet memorial sites, the EOP Legacy Forest is a curated gallery of commissioned Legacy Portraits — not a simple photo upload directory. Every portrait is custom artwork created by K9 Hearts. Every dog in the gallery has earned their place through the love of a devoted owner. The gallery is permanent, global, and grows with each new portrait commissioned.
How much does an EOP Legacy Portrait cost?
Pricing for EOP Legacy Portraits is available on the K9 Hearts website. Each commissioned portrait includes permanent placement in the EOP Legacy Forest gallery at no additional charge — your dog rests in the forest forever as part of their portrait commission.
