The pet fitness market is booming, with pet wearables emerging as a fast-growing trend. Today’s parents are eager to learn more about their pets’ wellness, with many taking better care of their pets’ health than their own.

As the nation’s leading dog wellness franchise, Dogtopia franchisees see just how much wellness matters to their customers on a daily basis. That’s why we’re proud to partner with PitPat, UK’s Pet Tech Leader, to introduce the DASH activity monitor.

DASH by Dogtopia® is available at participating locations, allowing our franchisees to meet the needs of pet parents who want to better understand their dog’s health and activity. It also provides them with tangible evidence of the positive impact daycare has on pups. Designed as a lightweight device that attaches to a dog’s collar, DASH is the only device approved for use in Dogtopia’s multi-dog playroom environment, as it can withstand the physical activity and play that daycare dogs enjoy. Pet parents can also use the device to monitor their dog’s activity levels when they’re not at daycare, allowing our franchisees to offer their customers a better picture of their dog’s health at all times.

Data has shown us that Dogtopia dogs average more than eight miles at daycare, twice the distance they usually cover at home. With DASH, parents can now observe first-hand how daycare impacts their dog’s mood, behavior, and physical well-being, allowing them to take a more active role in their pup’s health, (while also offering franchisees new ways to demonstrate the benefits of regular dog daycare). The monitor has a one-year battery life and syncs directly with Dogtopia’s enhanced app, which helps our franchisees easily provide their customers with seamless integration and ease of use.
