Announce your new puppy with a moving photo

New puppy, new phone gallery full of blurry photos. Pick the one good shot and turn it into a little video introduction.

Puppies rarely hold still long enough for a good video, which is exactly why a living portrait works so well. Your sharpest photo becomes a gentle loop: blinking, sniffing the air and looking around.

Pair the video with their name, age and breed when you post. Stuck on a name? Try our free pet name generator.

Photo tips

Shoot at the puppy's eye level, kneeling down.
Use the moment right after a nap: calmer puppy, sharper photo.
A plain background (floor, blanket) keeps the focus on the puppy.
