Woman builds selfie-booth for dog to let her take pics of herself; 'photos are fantastic'

Dogs have become an integral part of families around the world and in one recent incident, a pet parent designed a ‘selfie booth’ in a bid to make her little canine as happy as possible. While taking to Twitter, Simone Giertz, who is a YouTuber and an inventor, shared three images of her pooch, Scraps, sitting inside a tiny-box like structure with a paddle in front of her. Giertz even shared a short clip of the dog entering the photo booth with a YouTube link which showed her building the structure from the scratch.

In the clip, Giertz explained the mechanism of the photo booth. She said that when a dog enters the booth and places its paws on the pedals, it triggers a camera which, in turn, activates a treat dispensing machine, leaving the pooch happy and the pet parent with a selfie of their dog. The YouTuber built the fully automated photo booth from scraps and said that she made the machine for ‘dog selfies’, something she had not seen before.
