Walk For A Dog!

I do lots of walking with dogs - foster dogs, my dogs, client dogs for my work doing pet sitting/dog walking...

So boy was I excited when I learned about this app where I could be earning money for New Rattitude each time I head out for a walk with a dog. The app is called Walk For a Dog and using money from advertising it pays out a certain amount of money per mile walked. The more people we get walking, the more money raised for New Rattitude.

I've been using it for a couple weeks now. It's super easy to use and beyond just raising the money, it has some cool features. It tracks your total mileage or you can see what each of your dog's total mileage is. You can click on past walks and it brings up a map of the walk and the details of the walk - total time, mileage and your average walking speed. If you like to run with your dog or bike, there are settings for that too.

To get started on a walk all you have to do is tap on the photo of which dog you are walking and tap the button to start walking.

Once you're walking if you want to stop or pause, just tap the button. 

Under the history tab there is a list of all your walks. Tap a walk and it will open up the details of that walk. You can also tap on the photo of one of your dogs and it will list only the walks you've done with that dog.

Here's a detail page for an individual walk

If you look under the "about" tab it will list the total mileage being walked for New Rattitude by all the people walking as well as the total miles you've walked for New Rattitude. 

To get the app go to www.wooftrax.com to learn more. Click on the "get the app" tab when you want to download the app - it's available for both Android and iPhone. When choosing the rescue group that you want to walk for it will ask you to look by state. Open the Michigan list (we are a National group and the New Rattitude post office box is in Michigan) and then click on New Rattitude. Then get out there and walk your dog!
