I've built Waulog (https://waulog.com), a web app to help dog owners track their pets' health and activities. It features: - Activity logging (walks, meals, etc.) - Health monitoring (weight, vomits, feeding schedule) - Family sharing for coordinated care - QR code profiles for lost dogs - 100% Free As a dog owner, I created this to solve my own pain points. I'd love feedback from the HN community, especially on: 1. Additional features you'd find useful 2. UX improvements 3. Privacy concerns and how to address them Any thoughts or suggestions are appreciated!
