FAQ
How do I make the interaction between the person and dog look natural?
Describe a specific small action, like "resting its chin on her knee" or "mid-stride together," rather than just placing both subjects in the same scene without any real connection.
Can I specify a particular dog breed in my prompt?
Yes. Naming the breed directly, like "golden retriever" or "border collie," gives more consistent and accurate results than a general description like "a dog."
Why do hands or paws sometimes look distorted in the results?
Hands and paws are some of the harder details for AI models to render accurately, so regenerating a few times or simplifying the pose often produces a cleaner result.
