Once you get your FitBark, plug it in to charge and create your dog’s profile. If you need help getting started with the FitBark app, check out my previous video below.
Creating a FitBark Profile for Your Allergy-Prone Australian Shepherd
Once you have that much sorted out, next you want to create your dog’s profile to start getting results.
First, you want to browse your virtual photo albums for the cutest current facial portrait of your beloved pooch! Choose the best one and this will become the profile picture for your FitBark app. Boops and derps might be a good suggestion!
In my opinion, the more exciting the profile picture, the better. Think about the last time you updated your own social profile? Didn’t you choose the best side of yourself, doing something that would almost guarantee engagement? So, you want to try and find this for your dog’s profile picture as well. It’s going to be the first thing other dogs and their paw-rents see when they use their own apps.
Tailoring to Your Pup’s Specific Breed and Backgroun
What I really love about FitBark is the ability to personalize the results and monitoring. In the next steps to set up your dog’s profile, you’re going to select your dog’s breed or 2 of the most dominant breeds in your dog’s breed mix. This will ensure that you are getting the most accurate results. I personally love that I can customize the app this much! I use mine with a lot of different dogs, and FitBark can still give me and many other owners valuable feedback!
Select Your Dog’s Health Issue
In this case, Misha has food sensitivities and her paw-rents have to be very careful with what they feed her. When her sensitive skin breaks out in a rash, or her stomach becomes upset, they know they need to re-evaluate her nutrition. It is challenging for owners to monitor their dog’s nutritional limitations. FitBark helps provide a tool for evaluating and monitoring.
How Does FitBark Monitor Dog Allergies
How does FitBark monitor for dog allergies? FitBark is the only dog health monitor that provides valuable insight for pet owners. By providing a sleep score, paw-rents can determine how restful their pups’ sleep was. A better score indicates less scratching, less stomach upset, less skin irritation. Sleep is so important to a puppy’s development and a dog’s overall health.
