Bay Meadows

Living in the heart of Silicon Valley, we are surrounded by technology. So it only makes sense that dog owners are utilizing apps that help make the daily life with their four-legged companions as carefree and informed as possible. If you are in need of great canine apps, we have listed a number of our favorites sure to help you and your companion stay connected, happy and healthy.

The Granddaddy of All Things Dog Related in the Bay Area
For pet owners, the DogTrekker app doesn’t disappoint. They have complied some very useful data and have “sniffed out the best places in California for you and your pup to stay, eat, hike, splash and have lots of safe, tail-waggin’ fun!” Now you can take their free dog-friendly travel app with you as you explore California with your pup!

Get Walkin’
We all know how much your companion likes a good, long walk to explore the surroundings and get outside for fun and social doggy gatherings. If you enjoy long walks with your dog, then you will want to download the Walk For a Dog app, a revolutionary dog-powered fundraising tool for animal shelters. The Walk for a Dog program makes it possible to fund raise for your local animal shelter every time you take your dog for a walk.

Sounds great, now how do I do it? It’s simple, just install the app and enroll in the program. Then start walking your dog. Use the app to keep track of your mileage for each walk. You can also track how far you walk your dog. If you have more than one dog it will track each separately. For every mile you walk your dog they will donate to your local animal shelter.
