Wonderful app for dog lovers

Finally something for pet parents to enrich the lives of their fur babies. So happy to be part of this community!

Really enjoyed the pack walk, golden retriever meet up and Halloween gathering. Also grateful for connecting me to NorCal golden retriever rescue to help rescue a golden retriever at the shelter as soon as her stray wait ended.

Looking forward to the future events .

Wonderful App!!

I have been a longtime member of the Dogwood community. This is a very resourceful app providing wide array of information for one’s dog. From training tips to meet ups (Halloween is the best one). As a dog owner of a doodle, I had an opportunity recently to attend a meetup especially for doodles. It was awesome. My dog had fun running around with other fellow pups in a safe space. It is easy to sign up and share information and pics of your pup and at the same time be part of the wonderful growing community.

Useless for direct messaging to arrange play dates

You can’t message other users. You can only like and comment on posts and you get a bunch of notifications and ads from businesses
