Woof! New app for dog owners
NEED a dog groomer? Looking for a trainer or nearby park? A new iPhone application provides canine information and also functions as a dog's ID and medical and insurance cards.
The "My Dog" app allows dog owners to create and share a personalized profile of their dogs, similar to Facebook, according to its creator Holger Laufenberg.
The California-based designer of the app, said the idea for it came after his terrier mix, Dax, went missing.
"A panic struck me, and I started calling all the vets, all the shelters. Over and over again, I was asked the same questions about the kind of dog, its medications, that sort of thing," said the 49-year-old former ad executive.
"I thought it was crazy, and that there must be some better way to do this."
The profile includes a picture, description, information about the dog's owner and emergency contact information, as well as details on vaccinations and medical history.
The data about the dog can be e-mailed or uploaded to a user's Facebook or Twitter account. The app is also with listings of dog-friendly hotels and parks, the pet rules of US-based airlines and rail services.
