How to take photos of yourself with your dog
By Con, founder of Music Wide Selfie · Updated 22 October 2026
Short answerProp the phone at your dog’s level, sit or kneel with your dog, use burst or a remote, and hold a treat or toy right above the lens to get their attention.
Setup
- Phone low, near your dog’s eye level.
- Burst mode or a remote.
- A quiet spot with few distractions.
Attention
A treat, squeaky toy or noise right by the lens gets those ears up.
Keep it fun
Short sessions and plenty of rewards. Stop before your dog gets bored.
Questions
How do I stop blur?
Good light and burst mode. Dogs move fast.
