1 . iTrainer Dog Whistle & Clicker
The iTrainer Dog Whistle & Clicker combines animal sound effects, a dog whistle, and a training clicker to help you train your pet.

4. We Rescue App
Perhaps you’re still thinking about getting a dog as a pet? Or maybe a different kind of animal? If so, We Rescue is certainly the app for you. We Rescue is a great app designed to help you adopt many different creatures, whether scaly or furry. There’s a special search option where you can search by breed, and you’ll be given extensive details to help you make the right choice. Pets come from rescue centres and shelters, and you can search these by location, depending on where you live. Using the app, you can filter by size, age, gender, and more, to help you find the perfect pet for you. If you have kids, let them play a part in the decision too. Some children are better suited to certain animals, and it’s important to bear this in mind when making a choice.
