Want Your Puppy to Be the Next Instagram Star?
Here are a few quick-start tips from our team at NewDoggy.com:
- Pick a memorable handle: Short, easy to spell, and ideally related to your dog’s name or breed.
- Post regularly: Even 3–4 posts per week help build consistency.
- Use good lighting: Natural daylight makes a huge difference—avoid flash!
- Capture personality: Don’t aim for perfection. Silly, sleepy, or sassy moments often do best.
- Engage with other pet accounts: Comments and collaborations help you grow.
- Use trending hashtags: Try #puppyoftheday, #dogsofinstagram, #floof, and breed-specific ones too.
And of course—start with a truly special pup. At NewDoggy, we’ve met so many puppies who were born to charm the camera (and hearts). Whether you’re looking for a tiny Pomeranian with superstar vibes or a playful French Bulldog ready to pose, we’re here to help you find your next furry influencer.
