If you were to go through my cell phone, you'd find a disproportionate number of unrecognizable photos of my dog. Blurred images that resemble a haggard mop more than a Golden Retriever [1], punctuated by a glimmer of hope . . . some small detail that's miraculously in focus, like her nose or paw. What I wouldn't give to have a professional trail us so that these pictures were worthy of a frame.

I may not be close to having my own private historian follow us around, but I just discovered the second-best thing: The Woofie [2] ($10). It's a pet treat dispenser that attaches to a smartphone or tablet, and it holds a treat just above the camera, keeping your BFF's attention right where you want it. No more crappy pet selfies; with the Woofie, you'll have your furry friend posing in no time.

The Model Citizen Pet Woofie [4] ($10) makes snapping photos of your pet easier than ever.

Just look at this well behaved one.

He's so patient.

Perfect selfies every time.
