Case Study - Skip the Shelter, Adopt from Fellow Dog Lovers

Overview

With a mission to reduce the number of dogs in shelters, Doghouse approached us to create a platform that connects dog lovers with potential adopters aiming to provide a safe and user-friendly environment for dog adoption, ensuring that every dog finds a loving home.

Challenges and Solutions

Outdated Breeder Websites

Most breeder websites were outdated and hard to navigate.

We designed a clean, responsive UI using React and made sure it was easy to update.

Trust Issues

People wanted to make sure they were buying from ethical breeders.

We implemented a review and rating system for breeders to increase transparency and trust.

Technical Barriers

Breeders didn’t have the time or expertise to maintain modern websites.

We created user-friendly profiles that breeders can easily manage without technical skills.

Ensuring Ethical Practices

Ensuring only ethical breeders could join the platform was crucial to maintaining trust and reliability.

We developed a vetting process for breeders, requiring proof of ethical practices.

What we did

The project scope included developing a mobile application that allows users to create profiles for their dogs, search for adoptable pups, and connect with potential adopters and fellow breeders.

Additionally, the platform needed a robust Content Management System (CMS) to manage user data and interactions securely.
