A private, on-device training tracker for dog handlers. Now available on iOS and Android.
Log sessions in under thirty seconds. See your dog's progress across four pillars over time.
Paws.Progress is a training session tracker built for dog handlers who want more than a gut feeling.
Log each session, score four key dimensions of your dog's behaviour — Regulation, Reliability, Responsiveness, and Resilience — and let the data show you what's actually changing over time. Not another app to teach your dog tricks. Just a clear, honest picture of how your dog is coping in the world, where they are in their training journey, and how far they've come since you started.
Progress in dog training is hard to see. You're in it every day, and the small wins — the ones that actually matter — disappear from memory when your dog has a bad day. Then doubt creeps in. Is this working? Are we actually getting better?
Traditional training diaries take a long time to write and even longer to read back through. And they still don't give you a real analytical picture across sessions, over time.
Paws.Progress was built to fix that. Not to tell you how to train — that's for you and your trainer to figure out — we simply show you, clearly, whether what you're doing is working.
Paws.Progress is built by George Hart — a software developer with a background in financial technology and a passion for all things dogs. I have three high-drive working dogs, all with very different temperaments.
The app grew out of a genuine lived problem: tracking real behaviour change across multiple dogs, multiple contexts, and long timescales — with nothing off the shelf that came close to doing it well.
It's a solo project, built carefully and without shortcuts. No venture funding, no team of ten. Just a developer who trains dogs, and wanted to know whether the long hours of training were really paying off.
