Calories

Animo calories calculation is based on an industry standard calculation that takes into account your dog’s weight. The calories burnt are tracked against each movement type for your dog. The app also provides guidance on how many calories a dog should burn each day, based on its weight, neutered status and age. If calorie burn is set as your favourite goal in the app, you will receive a notification when your dog reaches that goal, and the goal will be marked as complete on the dashboard. You can compare today’s calorie burn data with your dog’s average.

Everything your dog does, even relaxing on the sofa, burns calories. Animo tracks the calories that your dog burns each day and the data can be reviewed in graphs by day, week, month and year.

Sleep

A good night’s sleep can do wonders for your dog’s overall health and wellbeing, while several nights of poor-quality sleep may be a sign of stress, discomfort or illness. You will receive a notification if your dog’s sleep quality was much lower than normal last night and you can compare sleep quality data with your dog’s average. Define your dog’s sleeping hours within the app, e.g. 10pm-6am.

Animo records a sleep score for each night based on the length, continuity and the amount of movement during sleep.

Behavior

It can be difficult to keep track of changes in your dog’s behavior. Even small changes can give you a critical insight into your dog’s health and wellbeing.

Animo can accurately detect when your dog barks, scratches or shakes and alerts you whenever there is a significant increase in any of these behaviors.
