## What it does

The clip begins with your pet on all fours. It shifts its weight back, rises onto its hind legs with its front paws held up, looks around proudly, wobbles, then drops back down.

## From our test

We tested with a golden retriever on a lawn. In the later frames the dog stands upright on its hind legs with front paws up, a very person-like pose.

## Tips for the best photo

- Use a clear, full-body photo of your pet from the side or front.
- Pick a photo on grass, floor or other plain ground.
- Keep other animals and people out of the frame.

## Ideas for using it

- A dog owner shares a funny clip on TikTok.
- A pet shop adds a playful ad to its page.
- A family sends a goofy clip of the new puppy to relatives.
