Bud is a community-driven dog walking app, built in Bideford, by a dog owner to help people find, record and share genuinely good walks for dogs.
The focus isn’t just on where to walk, but how to walk responsibly. Bud highlights local knowledge such as livestock considerations, wildlife sensitivity, access notes, and facilities like dog waste bins, helping owners make informed choices while respecting the spaces they enjoy.
Bud was created to complement local dog-friendly communities and initiatives, encouraging responsible ownership, enrichment, and thoughtful use of shared outdoor spaces. As the platform grows, its aim is to support organisations and campaigns that help keep our countryside clean, safe, and enjoyable for everyone.
Available on Android, with walks already being shared across Devon and beyond.
