I have just discovered the holy grail of dog apps! It's called BarkCam and it's free to download (on iPhone, I don't know about Android). If you're like me, I've always had horrible pictures of my dogs unless they're sleeping lol. The app makes a loud noise (treat bag, squeaky toy, angry cat, door bell, T-Rex etc) right before snapping the picture, so you get the cutest dog faces and head tilts! Then you can add filters and stickers and speech bubbles if you want. It's so much fun and the pictures turn out adorable! Give it a shot.

Domino had his left front leg amputate on May 13th 2014 after being hit by a car. He's now living a happy healthy life on three legs :)
Thanks Cassie, this is adorable! Very cool.

Our story: Broke rear leg in June 2013 - non-conclusive results for cancer so leg was plated and pinned. Enlarged spleen in September 2013 and had it removed and was diagnosed with Hemangiosarcoma and started chemotherapy. Became a Tripawd January 8th, 2014 and definitive Hemangiosarcoma diagnosis. Three major surgeries in 7 months and Shelby took them all like a champ only to lose her battle to cancer in her brain. We had 8 amazing extra months together and no regrets. #shelbystrong #loveofmylife
What a great idea! Now maybe I won't have to look and sound completely ridiculous when I'm trying to get Tanners attention for a picture..haha. Im downloading now. Thanks for sharing!

THANKS CASSIE. Your pics areprecious!
I've got a tablet and I thinks it's an android...not that I have any idea what that means...but I'll let you j now if it works. High risk that it may be a "user error" though!
Happy Hannah had a glorious additional bonus time of over one yr & two months after amp for osteo! She made me laugh everyday! Joined April's Angels after send off meal of steak, ice cream, M&Ms & deer poop!
COOL. Looking for it now. Expect lots of fuzz butt pics to come.
Sally, oy. You scare me with that tablet. 
Adelaide is a young tripawd Husky, from an injury. Her amp was on 10/1/12. She has 4 sisters, Aissa (a senior border collie/chow), Maggie May (a puppy Great Pyrenees), Mathilde and Morrigan and 1 baby brother, Bagheera. We are all watched over by our angel Brendol, who was dx with OSA 1/30/13, amp on 2/6/13, and left us on 8/20/13.

That's fun. So Aissa was very intrigued. So much so, that the second time I tried, she got up to come see what was making noise.
Now, Adelaide, on the other hand, was very non-plussed through most of the noises.
But then, I found the right sound to get her interest...
The screaming cat noise did it. lol
Thanks Cassie.

Im glad everyone is trying it! It's very addictive! My guys are the same way Karma, I had to search through all the different sounds to find out which ones worked best for them. For Dom it's the squeaky, for Finn its the doorbell. I can't wait to see more pictures!!

This is too good! I am definitely getting this. Hey, it will probably work for pictures of my Grandkids too! I was just telling someone at the vet this morning how my dog smiles , but in 11 years , I have not been able to snap a picture of it.
TY GUY, Best Black Lab ever! Diagnosed and had amp in January, 2014. Kicked MRSA's butt. Earned his angel wings on April 16, 2014. Run Free my boy and don't forget a shoe. Ty is a proud member of the " April Angels". Ty sent us Daryl, a Tripawd rescue in Sept. of 2016. Daryl is 5 +or -. We are also Pawrents to Chandler, a Border Collie mix who is 15 and 1/2, Lucy, a Corgi who is 7, 2 minis, 2 horses, and a feisty cat named Zoe. Zoe had a non skeletal Osteosarcoma removed in July 2015. No Chemo, she was at least 16. She is going strong although she is now completely blind. She is now close to 20 and her hobbies are eating and sleeping in front of her personal heater.
