What will this dog-theme look like, may I ask? It sounds nice and is definitely an original idea, but do you want an artisan (custom, hand-crafted sells keycap that sells for anything from $25-125 for just that keycap) to go on Escape (where it always goes if you only have one artisan), or do you want something across the whole board? If you do indeed want something that makes the whole board convey your love for canine companions, it's hard to think of something that might fit the bill unless every key was to have simply a sprite(?) of a dog. That might impair the functionality of the board though.
There's nothing that corresponds to a "dog" theme, but I suppose you could have a custom keycap from WASD (with a little image of a dog) on Esc and the rest of the board in a brown-on-white or pink-on-white or some color scheme like that. Royal Kludge ABS caps could work if you're looking for the pink-ish colors, but it just dropped on Massdrop and will be a while before it comes back. If you'd really want to go off into the deep end then PBT Valentine from Originative is still up...about the highest quality (dye-subbed PBT, comparable to EnjoyPBT, and in Cherry profile too) but it'll cost you.

Back to the idea of the artisan, there's no one that makes a paw-shaped artisan at the moment. Frustrating, yes, and I would've thought that someone would offer one eventually due to all the dog lovers out there. Lootkeys' thread has not been active on GH for almost 6 months now. Although he did show a bit more originality with experimenting with different profiles and concepts, straying from the usual skull-shaped or demon-themed artisans, he was last active on GH July 30th and doesn't have a website outside of Geekhack. You can try making an account and sending him a PM, it doesn't hurt.
On r/mk there is a list of Artisan makers (active and non-active, I presume, so you gotta go and visit each page), located here

----------------
I stumbled upon this old artisan maker on GH from the reddit thread called
ArtKeycaps. From his sample photos, there are artisans that roughly resemble a dog (a chihuahua is what he was aiming for). See for yourself
(I can't tell which one is the demonic dog and which one is the regular dog
)
If these are too demonic-looking for you, it shouldn't matter as there are unfortunately no sales in his shop anymore though, and I don't know if he's still taking custom orders. He's not been on since October 2015, and the thread has been dead since May 2015

I hope you do find something that suits your needs. In the mk community it can be a bit frustrating if you want something that no one has done before/is doing.
ALSO @Ahhzz Be aware that the Roccat Ryos MK does not have a standard bottom row.
The standard bottom row is 1.25u Ctrl, 1.25u Win, 1.25u Alt - 6.25u Space - 1.25u Alt, 1.25u Fn or Win, 1.25u Menu, and 1.25u Ctrl.
Standard Winkeyless (an older layout from the IBM Model M and older 90's Cherry G80 keyboards, which you will find support for if you buy into expensive keysets such as EnjoyPBT or anything made by GMK) is 1.5u Ctrl, 1u Win, 1.5u Alt - 7u Space - 1.5u Alt, 1u Win, 1.5u Ctrl.
The Ryos MK is 1.5u Ctrl, 1u Win, 1.5u Alt - 6u Space I think???
(biggest problem is whether space is a regular 6.25u, a nasty proprietary 6u, or a nasty proprietary 6.25u) - 1.5u Alt, 1u Menu, 1u Win, 1.5u Ctrl, and it will throw a wrench into the works if you buy cheap(er) keysets from WASD or Tai-Hao or Royal Kludge for example, where the standard layout is the only one that is supported.
I'm afriad it will also be difficult to find keys to fill the 5 macros on the left hand side of the board, which are of varying "row" profiles.
As much as she uses the keyboard, I think I really only need a few of them capped, like maybe the function keys. The thought of a single cap for the esc key is starting to seriously appeal.... I guess I've seen the Hello Kitty themed stuff, and skulls, etc, and the complexity of the process didn't really sink in.
and is beyond the level of Originative's price gouging (my wallet still feels the $180 I paid for Sky Dolch 
). But then again, not a lot of people make glow-in-the-dark keycaps. If any of your keyboards (Ryos MK does have it) have backlighting, I guess LEDs could count as glow-in-the-dark... and that would certainly be easier as there are definitely backlit (even doubleshot PBT if you're into durability) sets out there, particularly from Vortex. I could've sworn that there were tons of Vortex SKUs on MK.com but they don't seem to be there now
