Working dog teams don't always work inside the same organization.

A sport club holds a training weekend with competitors from six different programs. A SAR coordinator runs a joint exercise with mutual aid teams from three counties. A service dog trainer brings in a contracted behaviorist for a quarterly evaluation day. In every case, the people involved are on different DogBase accounts and there has been no good way to coordinate them in one place.

DogBase Groups fixes that. Run a joint exercise with three counties without merging a single account. Put everyone on one shared training calendar, assign the sessions, and see who actually finished them. Each organization keeps its own dogs, records, and health data under its own control.

Everything you need to coordinate training across teams and accounts.

Create a Group

Stand up a group for a joint exercise, a training weekend, or a standing mutual aid network. Whoever creates it runs the schedule, the roster, and the follow-up.

Join Without Merging Accounts

Bring in handlers from other agencies, clubs, or counties with one short code. They join from their own account, and each organization keeps control of its own data.

Assigned Sessions

Schedule a training event, pick the session type, and assign it to the handlers who need to run it. Everyone shows up knowing what they're training and what to log.

Shared Training Calendar

One calendar for every team in the group. Upcoming exercises, past events, and cancellations all live in the same place, so nobody's working off an old email thread.

Member Management

Decide who's in the group and who runs it. Add coordinators from partner agencies, remove people when an exercise wraps up, and keep the roster current.

Records & Completion Tracking

See exactly which handlers completed their assigned sessions and which didn't. You get a clean record of group activity without ever seeing anyone's private training history.

01. The Group Hub

One shared space for every team in the group.

Every member works from the same Group Hub. Coordinators see the whole picture in one place: the training calendar, every scheduled event, who's in the group, and every session that's been completed. Members see what's assigned to them and what's coming up next.

Outstanding events and open tasks surface on their own, so nothing falls through the gap between agencies. It's what a coordinator needs to run a multi-team training program, and every member reaches it from their own DogBase account.

Detailed record keeping is essential if you want to learn to identify the good and the bad in your training routines and to maintain your credibility as a search team.Ken M, Catron County Search and Rescue

Why choose us

Built for the way working dog teams actually collaborate across organizations, not just within them.

01
Shared coordination. Separate data. By design.
When handlers from different organizations join a Group, their underlying DogBase accounts remain completely separate. Their dogs, training records, health data, and files are not shared with the Group or its members. What is shared is the coordination layer: scheduled events, assigned sessions, and completion records. A Group is a shared workspace on top of independent accounts, not a merged account with access controls.

02
Coordination that prepares people, not just notifies them.
A calendar invite tells someone when to show up. A DogBase Group event tells them when to show up, what training type they are doing, and what data to capture. Because events are connected to the Type Builder, the session is pre-structured before the member arrives. They log their completion using a format that is already defined, consistent across every member, every event, every Group.

03
If joining takes more than 10 seconds, people won't join.
Send one short code by text, email, or say it out loud at the morning briefing. The handler enters it and they're in the group. No approval queue. No account linking. No onboarding call. That's on purpose, because a group is only worth something if people actually join it.

04
Accountability across organizations without access to their data.
A SAR coordinator needs to confirm all mutual aid handlers completed a joint exercise. A sport club organizer needs to verify which competitors finished required sessions. The Group Records tab provides this: structured completion data across every member and every event, visible to Group admins, built from the same training log format used across DogBase. The admin sees completions. They do not see private training history, health data, or files.

BUILT FOR PROFESSIONAL K9 TRAINERS

You coach across clubs, clients, and programs. Your data structure should work the same way.

Professional trainers do not work inside one organization. They work across many. Clients who own their own dogs, clubs running their own programs, handlers spread across regions. DogBase Groups lets trainers connect to every client they coach, assign sessions and track completions across all of them, and run their practice while every client keeps ownership of their records. Your expertise, across every client. Without the admin.

DogBase has been a great resource to be able to customize record keeping for my K9. I love how I can tweak the format and features as I go and can have everything in one place if needed to access. But what I've really appreciated more than anything has been the customer support in helping me set up a good logging system for my dogs and learn how to utilize the program more efficiently. They have helped me with every question I've had and even put the time into drafting templates for the training/action type to help me get started. That alone made a huge difference that set them apart from other programs out there that offer record keeping.
I have been using this app for over a year for all my trainings and deployments. The app is very easy to navigate and easily customizable. The AI summary is a very useful tool.

DogBase has become an important part of my work as a HRD K9 handler with Murphy. It provides a simple, reliable way to document training, deployments, and performance over time, giving me confidence that every session contributes to Murphy's long-term development and operational readiness. For K9 handlers committed to excellence, accountability, and continual improvement, it is a valuable platform that supports both the working dog and the mission we serve.

New to the working dog community little did we know training and caring for a working dog is a significant undertaking. Dogbase has improved our training and results with consistent sessions, not as much for the dog but me it’s a new adventure for me and Dogbase is a big part of our training now. Thank you for taking the time to design a database program to help organize and see the weaknesses to address. As my journey with a working dog grows so will my learning, adjustment and growth.
DogBase is making the administrative side of detection logs that much more efficient. I enjoy the clean and simple-to-use interface and the ability to submit logs on the go through mobile. Being able to print log reports helped to streamline my process. I like that DogBase staff are constantly working to make the program better and improve accessibility. Customer support is quick to respond and fast to problem solve and help with whatever is needed.
While I am still introducing myself to the software, it has already shown its potential for replacing logbooks entirely for myself and others on my team. Not only is it one less item to keep track but the simplicity makes it more motivating to complete logbooks.
I am loving using Dogbase! It is providing such great value in training my dogs and I plan to continue to use it for as long as I possibly can. I love the amount of information that you are able to log for each training session. Before, I was using the old school notebook method for keeping track of my training sessions. Now, with using Dogbase, I have access to SO many more variables that I wouldn't have normally thought to log before that can possibly make a difference in future training sessions.
DogBase is one of the few K9 logs that caters specifically to Search and Rescue (SAR). I am a relatively new user, but impressed by the amount of versatility it has to offer. I've used other K9 logs in the past, but they were focused on Law Enforcement and were not as detailed for SAR work, as is DogBase. Detailed record keeping is essential if you want to learn to identify the good and the bad in your training routines and to maintain your credibility as a search team. In my opinion, DogBase does the job.

I am so glad that I was invited to "test" this. I dreaded doing my logbooks and couldn't find an easy method. This platform is easy and so far all updates have made it easier and clear to fill out. I hope that we can continue to use it. I also like that I can check on more of my own team members and what training they are logging.

So far it's been a great app. Starting to switch completely over to it.
Absolutely love this application. Such ease of use and able to track everything. Same format for all trainings and love the information added based on time and location. This will be a game changer in record keeping for SAR dogs.
I was tired of using Excel spreadsheets where I had to remember all the information when I was finally able to sit down and enter it. I like DogBase because I can use my phone and fill it out during training while all the information is fresh. It's easy to go down the list and fill out each part and in the end I have all the information I want to keep track of for my HR and Airscent K9.
