Love wacky GoPro videos? Well just wait until the Internet gets its hands on a terrific new GoPro accessory that lets you hook up your camera directly to your beloved pooch. The new GoPro Fetch is a dog harness that will let you securely strap on a GoPro camera to your dog’s back or around its neck, all without weighting the canine down. Once the camera is mounted, it can then be used to film footage that shows what your dog sees when it’s chasing squirrels, digging holes or sniffing at any number of disgusting things.

The Fetch harness comes with two mounting slots that you can use, so technically you could strap two different cameras up to your dog if you had them. The entire Fetch package costs $59.99 and comes with the harness, mounting hardware and a camera tether. GoPro says that this harness and mount was design to be used by dogs weighing 15 pounds and higher, although it recommends removing the optional chest mount for small-sized dogs. GoPro also notes that the harness is made from “washable, water-friendly material” so “your dog can swim, play and get dirty without a worry.”

GoPro’s official video showing off how Fetch works follows below.
