Custom Pet Sculpture Production & Shipping Guide

Custom Pet Sculpture Production & Shipping Guide

Because every ToutouPets sculpture is individually handmade from your pet’s photos, each order requires time for creating, detailing, hand-painting, finishing, quality inspection, and shipping.

This guide explains the estimated production and delivery timeline for your custom pet sculpture.

How Long Does Production Take?

Our typical production time is approximately 7 days.

During this period, your custom pet figurine goes through several stages, including:

  • Reviewing your pet photos
  • Creating the sculpture
  • Adding important visual details
  • Hand-painting
  • Finishing
  • Final quality inspection

Because each sculpture is individually handmade, production time may vary slightly depending on the complexity of your pet’s markings, pose, coat, and other distinctive features.

How Long Does Shipping to the United States Take?

Shipping to the United States typically takes approximately 7–12 days after production is completed.

Once your sculpture has been finished, inspected, and packaged, it will be handed to the shipping carrier for delivery.

Estimated Total Time

Typical timeline:

Production: Approximately 7 days

Shipping to the United States: Approximately 7–12 days

Estimated Total Time: Approximately 14–19 days

Please note that these are estimated timeframes rather than guaranteed delivery dates.

Will I Receive Tracking Information?

Yes.

Once your completed sculpture has been shipped, tracking information will be provided so you can follow the progress of your package.

Please allow some time for tracking updates to appear after the shipping label has been created.

Why Can Shipping Sometimes Take Longer?

Delivery times may occasionally be affected by circumstances outside our direct control.

Examples include:

  • Customs clearance
  • Local carrier delays
  • Public holidays
  • Severe weather
  • Peak shopping seasons
  • Transportation disruptions
  • Incorrect or incomplete delivery information

If your order appears significantly delayed, please contact us with your order information so we can review the available tracking details.

How Is My Sculpture Packaged?

Each completed sculpture is carefully packaged before shipping.

Because custom figurines may include small or delicate details, we use protective packaging to help reduce the risk of damage during transportation.

We recommend opening your package carefully once it arrives.

What If My Package Arrives Damaged?

If your sculpture arrives damaged, please contact us as soon as possible.

Please provide:

  • Your order number
  • Clear photos of the damaged sculpture
  • Photos of the outer packaging
  • Photos of the internal protective packaging

These photos help us understand what happened during transportation and determine the appropriate next step.

Depending on the situation, we may provide a replacement, remake, or other appropriate solution in accordance with our after-sales policy.

What If My Package Is Lost?

If tracking indicates that your package may be lost, please contact us.

We will review the tracking information and, where appropriate, work with the carrier or shipping partner to investigate the shipment.

If the package is confirmed lost, the next step will be handled according to our lost package policy.

What If I Enter the Wrong Shipping Address?

Please check your shipping address carefully before placing your order.

If you notice an error, contact us as soon as possible.

If production or shipping has not yet progressed too far, we may be able to update the address.

Once a package has already been shipped, we cannot guarantee that the delivery address can be changed.

Additional shipping costs may apply if a package is returned or needs to be sent again because of an incorrect address provided at checkout.

Do You Ship Internationally?

ToutouPets is currently focused primarily on customers in the United States.

Availability, shipping time, and shipping costs for other destinations may vary.

If you are ordering from outside the United States, please check the available shipping options at checkout or contact us before placing your order.

When Should I Order for a Gift?

Because custom sculptures require both production and shipping time, we recommend ordering well in advance if you need your sculpture for:

  • Birthdays
  • Holidays
  • Anniversaries
  • Memorial occasions
  • Other special dates

For time-sensitive gifts, we recommend allowing extra time beyond the standard estimated delivery window.

Important Shipping Note

Production and shipping estimates are provided as a general guide.

Actual delivery times may vary due to circumstances outside our control, including customs, carriers, weather, holidays, or other transportation delays.

We will always do our best to prepare and ship your custom pet sculpture as efficiently and carefully as possible.
