...1 in 4 pets is lost at least once in their life. With WAUDOG Smart ID, your pet will return home faster thanks to the link between the pet’s ID and profile within the global database of identified animals. Store your pet's documents in the application, mark vaccination dates, schedule grooming, and add medication regimens in the calendar. Registration in the application is simple, fast, and free. It includes a separate profile for the owner and for each animal; details can be added later. A lost pet will not be able to give its address and phone number or tell what food it is allergic to. All of this data can be obtained from the pet’s QR pet tag in the WAUDOG Smart ID database. Whoever finds the lost pet simply needs to scan the QR code on the tag to find out all the information about the animal and its owner's contact details. QR pet tag works all over the world. You will receive a push notification and email when the pet tag is scanned. In the application, you will see data about the location where the scan occurred. The pet's public profile contains the owner's contacts. The person who scanned the tag will be able to choose a way to quickly contact you. In addition, the pet profile can be located through a microchip search. The care diary is made for easy pet care. Create a diary for your pet, set up an event category, and always remember your important things. Store your pet's documents online. They will always be on hand when you need them.

When a pet disappears, the first minutes matter more than everything that follows. Orma connects people who've lost a pet with people who've spotted or found one. No frills: only what helps an animal get back home. HOW IT WORKS 1. Report. Lost your pet? Create a report with photos, a description and the last known location. It takes a few taps. 2. Spot. Seen an animal that looks lost, or found one? Post a sighting with a photo and where it was. 3. Reunite. Orma alerts you when a nearby report might match. Message through the secure chat, check the details together and arrange the reunion. WHAT'S INSIDE • Reports for lost, found and abandoned animals: dogs, cats and any other pet • Privacy-first map: the public location is blurred by about 150 metres, so nobody can trace your home • Alerts when something happens near you • Sightings with photos, to follow an animal's movements and narrow the search • Possible matches between lost and found reports, with microchip comparison • Secure chat: agree on the details without swapping phone numbers or emails • PDF flyer with a QR code, ready to print and share • Adoptions from verified shelters and rescue groups • QR tag and digital collar: whoever finds your pet reaches its profile without seeing your contact details • Digital health booklet with vaccinations, weight and reminders • Vets, shelters and 24h emergency clinics on the map • Finder mode, for anyone who wants to help with searches PRIVACY COMES FIRST Your data is stored on servers in the European Union, in Stockholm. We don't sell your data to anyone. The public location is always approximate. Your phone number is optional: the chat works without it. FOR SHELTERS, RESCUES AND VETS If you run a shelter, a rescue or a veterinary clinic and you'd like to appear, verified, on the Orma map, write to info@orma.pet. Orma is free and made in Italy. A community that lends a paw, town by town. Orma is a community tool: it is not a GPS tracker, it does not guarantee a recovery and it does not replace the authorities. In an emergency, call your local emergency number.
