For the customer whose camera roll is 80% dog — this collection was built for you. Every set is hand-painted by our studio artists using real gel polish, layered to give each paw print, snout, and floppy ear the dimension a printed design can't replicate. Look at a Handora paw and you'll see the brushstroke shaping the toe pads; look at a printed paw and you'll see a sticker.
The range includes kawaii pup faces (oversized eyes, soft pastel palettes), realistic paw print accents on neutral bases, and breed-silhouette designs across French bulldogs, golden retrievers, dachshunds, corgis, and Shibas. Many of these sets cross into our Christmas range — think a tan-and-cream Frenchie in a tiny Santa hat — which makes them work for both year-round wear and December gift-giving. If you don't see your breed, we paint custom commissions: send a clear photo of your dog and our artists will build a portrait set that captures their actual markings, not a generic stand-in.
Each set ships with a free sizing kit, prep wipes, glue, and a mini file. Worn correctly, a Handora set lasts 2 to 4 weeks and can be reused 5 to 10 times. The 18,600+ customers who've ordered from us include a lot of dog people — the gifting use case here is real, and a custom portrait set tends to land harder than another mug or t-shirt.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can you paint a custom set of my specific dog's breed and markings?
Yes. Send 2 or 3 clear, well-lit photos of your dog through our custom order page — ideally one front-facing and one side profile. Our artist will paint a portrait set that captures their real markings, ear shape, and coloring. Custom breed commissions ship within 10 to 14 business days.
Are these a good gift for a dog mom — and what if I don't know her ring size?
Yes, and the free sizing kit solves the ring size problem. Every Handora order includes a sizing kit she can use to find her fit before applying. For gifting, we recommend pairing a kawaii or breed-silhouette set with a digital gift note; the unboxing reads more thoughtful than a generic dog-mom mug.
Can I get a multi-pet set — different breed on each hand?
Yes. For households with two or more dogs, our artists can split the set: five nails featuring one pet, five featuring the other, or alternating across both hands. Mention your multi-pet request and include photos of each dog when placing a custom order.
