Q: What is the best way to catch your dog on camera?

While Goodnewsforpets rubs elbows and paws with stars at the 2017 Sundance Film Festival, we wanted to know what the best tip was for getting your dog to cooperate for the camera.

According to the American Kennel Club (AKC) the number one tip for photographing or filming your dog is training. Your pooch’s training doesn’t have to extensive in order to get a good shot in the can. Even with a limited repertoire basic commands such as sit and stay can help keep any dog in frame and looking like a star.
