    Would anyone be interested in trying out a platform for matching dogs with homes and give me some feedback?

    Awesome, if you look up ePupp, we'll come up as the first page in your browser. We still have a limited number of pets on the website but expecting a big charity to onboard this Thursday! Also, if you'd be open to sharing more about your overall experience with looking for a rescue, I'll be...

    Would anyone be interested in trying out a platform for matching dogs with homes and give me some feedback?

    Thank you for creating a registration and taking the time! Is there anything specific from the questions/anwers that stands out as being too limited? We can add a few more options where needed. I love the idea of asking a question about motivation, keeps that balance between being easy to use...

    Would anyone be interested in trying out a platform for matching dogs with homes and give me some feedback?

    Thanks for that, I'm thinking we can change it to reduce the info we ask for. Would you be comfortable with name, surname, email only to register (would need to have some minimum info, so we can keep people's profiles)? Then when you find a dog you like, you can give a bit more info like...

    Would anyone be interested in trying out a platform for matching dogs with homes and give me some feedback?

    I love a success story like this!! Had a similar one with a foster of mine who was labelled as destructive by her original adopters. We then took her in and turns out she was just a puppy who was being left alone for long times in her crate, so when she was let out she's just go bananas. She's...

    Would anyone be interested in trying out a platform for matching dogs with homes and give me some feedback?

    Good shout. What we can do is move to essential only to your point. Probably will do name, surname, email only at registration and then we'll ask for phone and address only when applying so that we can do some checks (check for bots/fraudsters etc) and so that we can pass to charities for...

    Would anyone be interested in trying out a platform for matching dogs with homes and give me some feedback?

    @JudyN That's really kind, thank you! We're just a bunch of genuine dog lovers with various experiences trying to come together, to be honest. At some point we felt like fostering and volunteering wasn't doing quite enough. We’ve already started tweaking the breed and outdoor options based...

    Would anyone be interested in trying out a platform for matching dogs with homes and give me some feedback?

    No ferrets (yet!). If you have a look at the form (under Quiz), we've kept it fairly factual - "what is your home/area/family etc like.. would you consider dogs with behavioural and health issues". Our thoughts were that the deeper and more nuanced conversation can be had by the charity, as a...

    Would anyone be interested in trying out a platform for matching dogs with homes and give me some feedback?

    Hey, When I was looking for a foster I definitely experienced the rigour with which charities select the right candidates (and it's the same for adoptions). I think the challenge them comes when there's only a few dogs out there that are suitable for your home and as someone looking to adopt...

    Would anyone be interested in trying out a platform for matching dogs with homes and give me some feedback?

    I've shared some of our thoughts on post-adoption (and pre-adoption help to support you in the entire process) in the reply to Mad Murphy above but definitely in agreement that more can be done in general and that we should do more specifically. I have an anxious dog and it's been a mental...

    Would anyone be interested in trying out a platform for matching dogs with homes and give me some feedback?

    These are really great points! I’ve noticed that “after adoption” support is often overlooked here in the UK too. It was interesting for me to hear how some shelters in the USA are putting a lot of focus on post-adoption care. They’ve found that by offering training and advice, they’re seeing...

    Would anyone be interested in trying out a platform for matching dogs with homes and give me some feedback?

    Hi, thanks for the questions! What we're doing at the moment it to speak to charities directly and talk them through the platform and how they can use it to have a great experience both for them and for the future adopters. For example, our forms are easy-to-use, we show a summary of each...

    Would anyone be interested in trying out a platform for matching dogs with homes and give me some feedback?

    Hi everyone, I’m hoping to get some like-minded people like the members of this community to give me some feedback on a website me and my friends/co-founders are working on. Basically, my friends and I are passionate dog lovers and in the last few years we tried to buy/adopt/foster dogs in the...
