Filming your dog doing tricks or doing something funny is the first step to getting your dog on television.
Many dog owners love their pets and often teach them neat tricks that make them unique and stand out from other dogs. You may want to capitalize on your dog's talents and get him a little notoriety by getting your pooch on television. There are a number of different ways to get your dog on television and other media that can be used to get your canine some exposure. Landing a spot on a popular television program will take time and effort, but the rewards are worth the work.
Instructions
1. Use a digital video camera to film your dog. Film your dog often so that you can get a large body of footage to sift through. Go through the footage and pick out clips that you think people will enjoy, such as your dog doing tricks or doing something funny. Edit the clips together into one video.
2. Sign up for accounts with video sharing websites like YouTube. Upload your dog video and give it a catchy title that will grab people's attention. Share the video with friends and family and have them do the same. The more popular the video becomes, the more likely it will be seen by national television programs and news stations.
3. Post links for your video on social networking sites like MySpace and Facebook. This will also increase the exposure your video receives and increases the chances the video has of getting on television. You can also send the link to your video to local news stations to see if they will feature your video on a segment of the news, as videos featuring dogs are usually popular with viewers.
4. Submit your video to television programs that feature funny videos of pets. The more rambunctious your dog is behaving on camera, the more likely your video will be selected to air on the program. If your dog is doing something really unique, you may even win prize money for your submission.
