  • Clunky

    Very clunky app. Not very well thought out. I just want to open the app and instantly see a map of where I am with all the nearby dog friendly places marked on it, and a filter to only show pubs/cafes etc. Instead it’s primarily list based, which isn’t very helpful, and the map functionality that it does have is clunky and frustrating to use. Could be so much better.

  • Out of Date

    Good idea and fine interface. But have provided info about missing dog friendly places using app’s facility for doing so, but have never received acknowledgement nor had places added. Not useful because of these numerous omissions and lack of updates even when reported.
  • Useless

    Can't search by type or location. Slow,returns empty pages,Have to browse through all categories to find a restraint for example. And not free? Rubbish.
  • Sadly out of date

    Looked great at first sight. But years out of date. Falcos at Bruntsfield. Really? Pity.
  • Brilliant app

    Fantastic app, dont know what I’d do without it. Don’t like asking places if you can bring the dog in. This saves any hassle. Well done on making this.
  • Woof tastic

    Love this app for keeping up with new dog friendly places in our local area as well as top tips for when we are away from home. Keep up the good work!
  • Poor

    I wanted to like it but it really doesn’t work very well and misses out whole areas of the country (especially in Scotland!). Shame.

    Hi Susie, are you using version 3.2.5? This sounds strange if you are. I don't know what areas you believe are missing for Scotland but your review is not correct. There are 1000's of listings for Scotland and also pins on our interactive map. It is the most comprehensive Scotland guide out there. It covers all areas. I put a lot of effort into ensuring we have an extensive collection of listings in Scotland. For example, there has been around 200 new ones in Scotland added in the past week. Before posting a review please consider emailing the support first for any business. Negative reviews with incorrect information can have a large effect on small businesses which is unfair. Thanks Rhian
  • New layout

    Can’t understand why the layout was ever changed for this app. It used to be simple and very easy to use and now it’s too much of a fuss for a quick glance at places nearby. Instead I’m required to scroll about the screen and find the places as if it’s some sort of treasure hunt. Hopefully it will be changed back.

    Hi Nat2Gra, are you using version 3.2.5? If not please can you download that version as you will find that everything is as you would expect it to be. If it is not I would be grateful if you could send me a support request. There is a Scotland Other section which has a large selection of interactive maps and listings. Thanks Rhian.
  • Good app!

    Don’t know what I was doing wrong before but previous 2 star review is retracted! Is there maybe an issue using it not on WiFi? Either way I’ve gone back in and can now see a wide range of things in my area.

    Many thanks to the developer for swift response to my original review as well

    Hi there, please get in touch via the feedback form on the app as that doesn't sound correct. It's true there are more in Scotland but I sent a sticker to the Paper Duck in Harborne B17 so I know they are listed. I searched Birmingham B17 on the Midlands map and can see Paper Duck, Hop Garden, White Horse and the Junction. At least 20 straight away around that area. Also places in Moseley including Prince of Wales in B13. Places also in B1 postcode inc Brewdog. I can send a screenshot when you contact and give you instructions. Please always contact first as most things are easily resolved and I am always willing to help out straight away. Thanks
  • Clunky to use and not enough content

    I live in a very dog friendly neighbourhood in central london and not a single one of the dog friendly establishments is on here. In fact, there’s very few places on here in london at all.

    The app is difficult to use as well. It insists on you dragging the map around with two fingers, why? And why do you have to tell it where you are? Surely it can work that out.

    Can’t believe I paid for this.

    Hi Iampomo, that's strange as in the database there are 440 listings in total for London and all should be available in the London map when searching. Can you confirm where you are looking and which borough / postcode you live in? The London section had a large upgrade not that long ago and continues to be updated. For example, I have sent out at least 10 dogs welcome stickers to London venues in the past 3 weeks and they all get added to the database. If I know how you are using the app and which area is causing the problem I can investigate. Update 30/3: I have removed the 2 finger drag for you which was the default map behaviour. Also now all London places show at once but are grouped by area so you can see the full coverage. These were changes you were looking for. Also if you click "Get My Location" once it should be saving your location for the next time. Any other problems let me know. Thanks
