Woods Humane Society1.6.1 - App Store

The Woods app makes it easy for volunteers at Woods Humane Society to manage the animals in the shelter, see the dogs that need more attention, and easily log different forms of care. The categories of care include walks, play yard, kennel time, baths, offsite, and training.

Features real-time updating of the dogs in the shelter and automatic clearing of each care entry every day. Volunteers can leave comments to share with staff and other volunteers about the dog they worked with. Dogs can be given special tokens, including see staff, no play yard, no baths, needs bath, extra love, and if they are approved for offsites. Female dogs are outlined in maroon and male dogs are outlined in blue.

Who does this help?
1. The staff, because they no longer have to maintain a whiteboard since the available animals are synced automatically from the shelter database to the app.
2. The volunteers, because they can spend more time working with the dogs and less time figuring out which dogs need what care.
3. The dogs, because they will get more attention and love, which is our goal!
