Itconnectsdog breeders, adopters, fosters, and consumers all together in one platform.This platform will also inform users of the effect illegal and unethical breeding has on dogs. It includes personal identification, certification, and dog’s identification using e-registry codes. ‘Ruf’ offers also training program with accreditation for ethical breeders, which will comfort the consumers all the whilebenefitingthe dogs.
