To make taking photos with a pet that much easier, Pedigree's DENTASTIX brand is introducing the SelfieSTIX clip to effortlessly hold a treat on top of a smartphone. The plastic clip is perfectly shaped to hold a DENTASTIX treat, ensuring that a pet parent gets the perfect shot and a dog is rewarded with a beneficial snack afterward. The oral care treat that fits in the clip is not only pleasing to pets in terms of taste but also helps to promote fresh breath. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 4.5/10 - Popularity: 55% | Activity: 73% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Millennial - Top markets: North America ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Tech](https://www.trendhunter.com/tech) > [Mobile](https://www.trendhunter.com/mobile) ## Key Themes ### What Makes This Trend Stand Out - **Pet Selfie Accessories:** Opportunity for innovation in creating accessories that facilitate easier and better-quality selfies with pets. - **Novel Treat Delivery Methods:** Disruptive potential in developing unique and convenient ways to deliver treats to pets during photo-taking or other activities. - **Dual-purpose Pet Products:** Opportunity to create pet products that serve a practical function while also providing a treat or reward element. ### Sectors Adopting This - **Pet Accessories:** The pet accessory industry can explore new product offerings that cater to pet owners' desire to take selfies with their pets. - **Mobile Accessories:** Innovative mobile accessory manufacturers can develop products specifically designed to enhance the quality of pet selfies. - **Pet Food and Treats:** Companies in the pet food industry can create treats or snacks that are compatible with selfie accessories to meet the demand of pet owners seeking enhanced photo-taking experiences. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Movement-Based Dental Treats](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/stella-and-chewys.md) - [Wearable Dog Treat Dispensers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ez-treat.md) - [Influencer Dog Treat Collections](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/influencer-dog-treat-collection.md) - [Enriching Dental Mixes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/doggy-dental-mix.md) - [Prebiotic Dental Sticks](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/dental-sticks-for-dogs.md) - [AI Dog Dental Health Tools](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/greenies-canine-dental-check.md) - [Microbiome-Balancing Dental Treats](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/teef-treets.md) - [Pet-Taken Camera Initiatives](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/heartography.md) - [Two-Piece Dog Dental Kits](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/bark-bright.md)
