The breed

What makes labradors good cover material.

The most popular dog in the world, and food-motivated to a degree that qualifies as a personality. Labs are cheerful, patient, and permanently between meals. The stats block might as well have been designed for them — here, “treats negotiated” is not a joke, it is a record.

Fresh off the press

Three labradors, three completely different covers.

Nothing below is a template with a labrador's name dropped into it — it is what the engine actually wrote for three different labradors, from three different sets of answers.

Waffles — a derpy, athletic labrador, sworn enemy of the mailman, best known for the head tilt:

On Fame, Snacks, and the Mailman

  • Beautifully unbotheredGets away with everything. Has never once tried.
  • Built for sportEmployed exclusively in the pursuit of absolutely nothing
  • The mailman situationA threat report filed, loudly, at 11am sharp
"People say I've changed. I haven't. That's the problem."

988 treats negotiated · 32 mailman standoffs survived · 5 dramatic sighs per hour

Bruno — a food-obsessed, regal labrador, sworn enemy of the doorbell, best known for stealing socks:

He Breaks His Silence

  • A lab of rare distinctionSetting a standard the others pretend not to notice
  • Death to the doorbellEven on TV. Especially on TV. A source is worried.
  • Always starvingFed nine minutes ago. Sources describe it as a lifetime.
"People say I've changed. I haven't. That's the problem."

1,537 treats negotiated · 60 doorbell standoffs survived · 8 dramatic sighs per hour

Gus — a athletic, derpy labrador, sworn enemy of that tail, best known for counter-surfing:

He Breaks His Silence

  • Beautifully unbotheredGets away with everything. Has never once tried.
  • Reach exceeds graspExcept it does not, and the butter is gone
  • A lab of rare distinctionSetting a standard the others pretend not to notice
"I'm not difficult. I'm selective."

871 treats negotiated · 45 tail standoffs survived · 6 dramatic sighs per hour

Questions

The fine print, minus the fine print.

What do I get with a labrador cover?

Making and sharing the cover is free (it carries a small watermark). The paid download is a clean, watermark-free 8.5×11 file at 320 DPI for $7.99 — it prints true-size on letter paper at home or at any print shop.

How does it work?

Upload one photo of your labrador, pick a personality, a sworn nemesis, and a signature move — our deadpan editorial engine writes the whole cover in about 60 seconds. No account needed.

Is my photo kept private?

Yes. Covers live at an unlisted link only you can share, they're never shown publicly or used for advertising, and free covers are automatically deleted after about 30 days.

Can I send it as a gift?

That's the classic move: make the cover free, share the link with family, and anyone — including the grandparents — can grab the print-ready file.
