One Owner Equips Their Dog with a GoPro Camera for an Insider's Look

— January 22, 2013 — Pop Culture
A clever reddit user has given us a unique pet perspective by equipping his pup with a GoPro camera, the same camera that is used to acquire shots of fast moving cars and athletes from places that are too difficult to get a full sized camera into.

The dog days are a blast to watch as the dog fetches a tennis ball, jumps in the pool, and does the standard stuff that dogs do. Only this time, you get to see it through the dog's eyes. This camera is a great way for pet owners to connect with their pups by receiving a first-hand account of the types of things and activities their pets choose to do each day.
