Pain

How to feel comfortable living with a dog under one roof 24/7? Forget about your pet’s disobedience and health issues with the mobile dog handler!

Solution

iOS and Android mobile application with a set of lessons for a dog and its owner created with the help of professional dog handlers.

Challenge

In a company being pet-friendly, a question on how to get rid of your dog’s disobedience and raise a healthy and energetic pooch is always relevant. Inspired by the caring dog owners working at the company, Emerline came up with the idea of creating a mobile app for effective dog training. The concept went far beyond the mere teaching of dog commands pretty soon — there are dozens of controversial issues in the dog-human interaction.

Key Features

Special set of commands

An experienced dog handler with years of practice supported us during the process of creating clearly arranged video lessons. While GoDog is focused on the core commands to facilitate the dog’s good behavior, a suite of the advanced lessons is available, too. Each lesson represents several successive steps with the explanatory notes for a pet owner.

Augmented Reality

AR stands for simplicity and visibility of each training session. Our experts used the augmented reality tech to give dog owners a chance to watch the lesson’s steps from all angles and enable 360-degree viewing.

Walking Tracker

The tool allows a dog owner to adapt the walking schedule to the needs of a pet, while tracking its everyday physical activity and types of exercises.

Clicker & Whistle

The tool allows a dog owner to adapt the walking schedule to the needs of a pet, while tracking its everyday physical activity and types of exercises.

Shared Access to the Pet’s Profile

Install the app on various devices and keep track of pet’s training and walking activities together with all of your family members.
