Double Shovel Taxidermy

Double Shovel Taxidermy works on big game, small game, birds, fish (via replicas), and other mammals, as well as rugs.

You can choose from European, shoulder, half and life-size mounts, bird mounts in flying or standing poses, rugs, and custom fish replicas matched to your catch.

Owner Dustin Ford draws on a lifelong hunting and fishing background, including his Army service in Alaska, and approaches taxidermy as a way to preserve wildlife memories for his clients.

Reviews highlight lifelike, realistic mounts with strong attention to detail and creative habitat and plaque choices that enhance each piece.

The studio follows a posted price guide, requires a 50% non-refundable deposit at drop-off with the balance due at pickup, and notes that prices may vary by case, so they encourage you to contact them for current pricing.

Projects are completed in the order received, with rush jobs available at 1.5 times the original cost, and reviewers consistently report quick, reliable turnaround that is often faster than expected.

They offer rugs, custom habitat bases and displays, and custom fish replicas, and they provide flexible, by-appointment drop-off and pickup seven days a week.
