Dog Park by Dogster.com. It’s a virtual dog park for the iPhone or iPod Touch (wi-fi needed for iPod Touch). Social media for your dog. Although it’s a cute little app, there’s not much to it. See other dogs that are online, nearest, or favorites. You can see who’s in the Dog Park, chat with other people (unlimited text messaging), earn virtual currency (dog bones) to buy gifts, send picture messages to other dog owners and manage your tiny profile for your dog.

Dog Park by Dogster.com is a nicely designed app, but like I said, there’s really not much to it at all, which is disappointing. They have these “friend codes” all over the app. You need them to send dog bones to others and to friend others, but I don’t see friend codes in the app itself. No clue of what my friend code is. Another downside to this app is that it’s no way tied to Dogster.com profiles. I really think that would be a big asset to this app.
Dog Park by Dogster.com is free from the App Store, so it’s worth it to check it out.
Overall, this app is nice, but a disappointment if you’re trying to get your dog into mobile social media. I have heard the Facebook app “Dog Book” is working on an iPhone app. I’m very interested in seeing that.
