User Reviews: Dog Decoder

  • Enjoyable

    This app has helped a lot in understanding my dogs. One of my dogs sometimes uses tongue flicks and yawns to indicate calm: she'll get on my lap facing me, make eye contact with me, flick her tongue & yawn, then settle.
    It would be helpful if after clicking on a picture for details, exiting took me back to where I was instead of to the start.
  • Not worth $4

    Great illustrations, but the info is nothing new to any observant human.
  • Love it!

    Great app! I am a dog trainer and behaviorist and I am always looking for new tools to help my clients understand their dogs' signals. This is great because I can bring it with me so easily. I love the info and descriptions and the quiz is a great idea too! Thanks you!
  • Dog Decoder

    I thought this was going to be a more serious app that might suggest ideas that weren't so basic and obvious. I didn't find it of an;y use at all because none of the descriptions seemed appropriate for my dog. I suppose it has to be very general but who doesn't know that a tail between the legs shows anxiety/fear? If I had to do it all over again, I wouldn't purchase this app.
  • Excellent app! Only ONE criticism...

    This is a REALLY great resource for getting to know what your dog is communicating through body language. My ONLY complaint: I wish the app wouldn't default back to the top after I exit a pose. This gets annoying when I'm reviewing postures near the end of the list. It should default back to the top of the section you're looking at perhaps? Other than that, I recommend this app.
  • Every Dog owner needs this app!

    This app is AWESOME!!! Every dog owner should have it. I take care of dogs as a dog walker and I usually can tell when a dog is stressed, but I am not always accurate or sure what is going on. This app takes away the guesswork. I have learned so many things I didn't know before about what a dog is saying through their body language. I even used some of the calming signals to help one of my dogs feel relaxed and it worked! The illustrations are very clear and easy to understand. Everyone who has a dog needs this app for sure. I have already forwarded it to all my clients.
  • Great help for dog training!

    I'm in school to be a dog trainer right now, and this app is very helpful! It makes it easier to understand and read a dog's body language. And it's really cute too!
  • Fabulous addition to understanding canine body language

    I love this app! With simplicity and a fabulous sense of humor Dog Decoder provides wonderful guidance in the interpretation of canine body language. Not only does our understanding of canine communication support the dog, it also may go a long way in prevention of injuries inflicted by dogs. Kudos to the creators of this app.
  • Great App. Learned A Lot!

    I had a great experience with this app and learned a lot about the body language of my little one. It helped me understand her better and has brought us even closer than we already were! Thank you!
  • Love it, but

    Ok I love this app. I am so happy to finally see an app of this kind. I'm a little dog obsessed. That being said I would love to see the quizzes be either longer or have options for longer quizzes. I would also love to see more aggression and what to avoid. Such as whale eye, or freezing. Maybe videos in the future. All in all great and thank you so much for all the information.
