Inspiration

A general care towards dogs led to this idea. And being an owner myself, We have faced such problems like finding it hard to get a Mate for my dog. And a simple feeling of empathy towards stray dogs led us to make this platform to just ease the process of connecting Animal lovers for this.

What it does

  • We have created a platform that help pet owners in more than one way, First would be to give a shelter to stray dogs by matching them with the correct owner for them.
  • Another would be to help dog owners find a match for their dogs for mating by connecting with other owners near their area.
  • By making it user friendly we make it easy for anybody to list nearby dogs and help them find a new home.

How we built it

  • Our approach is by making a web app for this purpose so that it is more accessible.
  • We have created a user-friendly interface for people to easily navigate through our website and list their dog.
  • Here people can easily find dogs according to their preferences.
  • Also a chat app is integrated in this Platform to connect with other users to make the further process smooth.

Challenges we ran into

  • Finding the location of Available Dogs and then providing users relevant results according to their preferences.
  • Creating a real time chat app and storing and fetching in the right place.

Accomplishments that we're proud of

  • We are definitely proud of such a Platform we have built in such a short span of time.
  • The smooth collaboration among our teammates, and how everyone did their part splendidly.
  • Finally the awesome community that we found of our peers and mentors, along with the blazing spirit to support each other and grow.

What we learned

  • The new technologies we were exposed to making the right use of it.
  • How to manage our time accordingly and set realistic deadlines for both ourselves and our team.

What's next for BarkBuddies

  • Integrating a ML model to predict diseases related to dogs and possible remedies according to given symptoms.
  • Implementing a better searching algorithm to give people more precise search results.
  • Scaling this Platform to make this Platform for all kinds of animals.
