Simple Modern Dog Pregnancy Announcement
The most simple puppy dog pregnancy announcement photo idea of all – grab one of these cute baby announcement dog bandanas, set up a white cloth backdrop at home (or get your pup to hop up on your bed if that’s allowed!) and throw your iPhone into portrait mode for a sweet, simple, but meaning photo like this.

Like to live life in the fast lane? Hide some treats in your hand and call your pup over to capture a cute photo like this – and be sure to tie the bandana backwards so you can read it from behind.
Casual At-Home Pregnancy Announcement with Dogs
Looking for dog pregnancy announcement idea that gives low key vibes? Amazon yourself an oversized white tee and a fresh pair of slouchy socks then snap some pics of your dogs and daddy-to-be in a comfy setting in your home.
Letter Board Pregnancy Announcement with Dog
Grab a simple letter board, a little pair of baby booties, and head out to a local outdoor spot with a pretty backdrop.

To really take your photo to the next level, try to consider the colors of the space you plan to use for your photo, and choose outfits for you and the daddy-to-be that share the same tones.
Dog Reading a BookPregnancy Announcement
Think you can get a pair of glasses to stay on your pup for long enough to snap a pic?
Then this sweet little pregnancy announcement idea might be just the one for you.
While there are a few ways you could set this one up, it may be easiest to create a cover for your book yourself with some card stock or pretty paper.
To include the sonogram, grab a mini clothespin and attach the photo to the book before you place it in front of your dog (of course, having lots of yummy treats on hand may help this feat go a bit more smoothly!)

The Great Outdoors Pregnancy Announcement with Dog
While the classic pregnancy announcement photo typically includes a sonogram, it’s definitely not necessary.
Instead, simply snap a pretty shot of your little growing family, post it to your socials and make the announcement official with a really great caption (here’s my mega-list of baby announcement caption ideas to bookmark!)

Light & Airy Baby Announcement with Dogs
If you plan on having your baby reveal photographs taken with a professional photographer, they will, of course, provide plenty of poses and shots for you to choose from.
While planning which style of photos you’d like with your photographer, consider having them shoot a few where the pups are in focus, and the subject of the images, too, just like this one.
Big Brother Bandana Pregnancy Announcement
Looking for a classic pregnancy announcement idea with your dog?
Choose timeless colors and prints for your outfits, like this feminine floral patterned dress, and blue plaid shirt with matching blue jeans, and your special images will be sure to stand the test of time.
Funny Pregnancy Announcement with Dogs
To recreate this cute pregnancy announcement with dogs, you’ll need a letter board with a cute and funny phrase, a custom baby onesie, a soother with a clip and your sonogram photo.
For the best photo, try to find a spot in your home that gets indirect sunlight, and take the photo on a slightly overcast day if you can.
For a nice and bright backdrop, try laying down a neutral blanket.
