July 27th, 2011 – BARKIN’ BUDDY is the new must have mobile application for dog lovers everywhere. This social networking app allows owners to build profiles; add buddies, make new friends to play with, locate dog friendly locations and ultimately better manage their pet’s relationships. The app is an innovative concept from the Radical Ideas Group. All you have to do is download BARKIN’ BUDDY from the App Store, head outside with your dog and start making friends.
BARKIN’ BUDDY is a dog-to-dog relationship management app, set to improve your pet’s social life. Once downloaded, simply create a pet profile, add a photo of your pooch and you’re on the way to creating your dog’s very own social network. Let others know when and where you’re heading, share information on hot spots, locate buddies and use it to make new doggy friends.
Radical Ideas Group CEO and dog lover Alexander Bagg, came up with the idea after recognising the disconnect between the sheer number of dog owners worldwide and the advent of social networking. “Being a dog owner, I felt there was a need to effectively combine the two” Bagg says “pet profile pages on other social platforms can only do so much in terms of actual functionality but with BARKIN’ BUDDY, the focus is on the pet and not the person.”
The BARKIN’ BUDDY app is a fun and modern way to develop your pet’s relationships and is simple and easy to navigate. In particular, the Map page displays various icons representing the location and status of your dog and those of other pooches nearby. It can show how many dogs you are walking, which buddies of yours are out and about, those who are yet to become a buddy and those who are offline. Barkin’ Buddy will enable dog owners everywhere to better manage their pet’s relationships just by ‘barking’ to their dog’s buddies to let them know where and when to catch up.
