About

Proof Dog Training

Features
Read full description

Start with what your dog already knows. Build a training plan from there. Proof begins with a short assessment. Rate a set of key skills — solid, partly there, not yet — then review and correct the starting levels suggested for related skills. You can also review the full assessment. The library covers 41 skills, and your daily plan starts from your dog's record. THE PLAN EXPLAINS ITSELF — AND LISTENS Every session tells you why it was chosen, from your own record: "because Juno hit 8 of 10 reps last session of 'reward position, standing still' — time for the next step." Disagree, and say so: too easy, too hard, no time, can't do this here, she's already got it. Tomorrow's plan changes, and tells you it changed because you said so. TRACK PROGRESS ACROSS PLACES Record repetition-based practice indoors, in the garden, on the street, in the park or somewhere new. The app tracks progress across different places and brings older skills back for a refresh. Routines and comfort-focused activities use observations instead of repetition scores. Progress reflects your assessments and records; it isn't a professional certification. ON YOUR WRIST See the day's plan and record practice on Apple Watch. Tap to log repetitions or an observation, then send the completed record to your iPhone when a connection is available. BUILT FOR OUTSIDE, ONE-HANDED Two huge buttons and almost nothing to read. Every rep answers with a haptic tap, and hits and misses feel different, so you never look down. Eyes-off mode turns the screen into two zones for when the dog is on a long line. Fully offline — field, park, basement, aeroplane. No account, no server. EVERY STAGE SAYS "IF IT GOES WRONG" All 81 stages carry their failure modes: the rear that pops up during a down, the recall word you've already worn out, the puppy who bites harder when you go still. Each one tells you the way back — not just the happy path. A RECORD YOU CAN HAND TO SOMEONE Keep assessments, practice results and observations together. Save a short video on your phone, and export a PDF summary to share with a trainer, vet or someone caring for your dog. Your records stay available even if you choose not to unlock further training. YOUR DOG, NOT A GENERIC DOG · Say what's actually driving you mad and the plan reaches for those skills first: pulling, recall, jumping, barking, mouthing, handling. · Age does real work. A puppy gets the socialisation window counted down to the week; an adult is never asked to grade puppy protocols. · No idea what breed? That's a valid answer. · Dog frightened of clicker sounds? Say so once and the clicker disappears from the entire app, replaced by a marker word or a hand signal. · Several dogs? Each one gets its own baseline, its own plan, its own record. WHERE WE STOP Separation distress, reactivity and resource guarding are deliberately not treated here. They need someone who can watch your dog, and generic advice applied to a frightened dog makes it worse. Proof teaches the prevention work, says plainly where the line is, and tells you what to look for in a qualified professional. ONE PRICE. SERIOUSLY. Download free. The baseline and your first week are genuinely free — no card, no trial that quietly converts. If it works for you and your dog, one payment unlocks everything, forever. No subscription. No ads. No upsell pop-ups. And whatever you decide, your record, your export and every dog stay readable forever. Positive-reinforcement marker training across foundation skills, obedience, manners, handling and care, life outdoors, games and tricks — with staged practice and guidance on what to observe.
