Help

The following icons will appear on your Map page as defined below. They are set by ‘clicking’ on a Paw print at your Profiles page to show that a specific dog is in ‘Walking’ or ‘Not Walking’ mode. Your icon will then appear on the Map screen so your Buddies can see where you are and either send you a ‘Bark’ or bound their way over for some good ‘ol Barkin’ fun!
