It was fantastic to be part of the NZIAM Conference in Wellington last week. The in-depth conversations with front-line Animal Control officers and council Regulatory and Compliance Managers were incredibly valuable. We're thrilled by the positive response to Doggone's solution and how it can simplify processes and save significant resources for councils, dog owners, and the wider community. #NZIAM #NZinstituteofanimalmanagement #dogregistration #animalcontrol #animalmanagement #localgovernment #nzcouncils #DIA #NDD #animalwelfare #compliance #dogcontrolact #privacyact #technologyforgood #SMS #app #sustainability #customisation #callaghaninnovation #provenROI #savingresources #reuniting #doggone
✨ It was fantastic to reconnect with so many councils and meet new faces at this year's NZ Institute of Animal Management conference in Wellington. Over the past few days, we’ve had great conversations, and received incredible feedback on Doggone's solution. Here are some of the highlights that excited us from our discussions: 🐾 Tailored to meet Councils' needs: Councils loved how Doggone’s features can be customised to suit their specific needs, like redirecting reunite notifications for menacing or repeat-offender dogs. 🐾 Real-time control: The “a-ha” moments were priceless as councils saw how real-time notifications through the Doggone app’s council portal provide oversight of all roaming dogs and reuniting activity. This added control was a real standout! 🐾 Simplified re-registration: By sharing owner-updated dog information from the Doggone app, we’re reducing admin headaches for councils and saving valuable time and resources during re-registration. 🐾 Free communication tool: The no-cost communication channel through the Doggone app was a big hit, especially for sending reminders to all dog owners about registration renewals and animal welfare initiatives, like timely reminders about Guy Fawkes. 🐾 Sustainable, practical tags: Councils appreciated the recyclable tag options, which maintain the familiarity of current disc and strap loop styles, suiting both council and dog owner preferences. The clear reuniting instructions on the tags were seen as a valuable benefit for all stakeholders. Doggone offers both annual and lifetime tag options to meet each council’s needs. And saving the best for last ... 🐾 Proven ROI: Councils were really interested to learn about our research with Callaghan Innovation, which provides validated ROI for those using Doggone. It was exciting to discuss how we can positively impact a council’s bottom line. At Doggone, we’re passionate about helping councils streamline operations, enhance dog welfare, while ticking the sustainability box. We know that our solution can make a real difference to councils and their communities. 🐕✨ #NZIAM #NZinstituteofanimalmanagement #dogregistration #animalcontrol #animalmanagement #localgovernment #nzcouncils #DIA #NDD #animalwelfare #compliance #technologyforgood #SMS #app #sustainability #customisation #callaghaninnovation #provenROI #savingresources #reuniting #doggone
