PawChamp - Dog Training and Care App: AI Companion and 24/7 Dog Experts

@mark_opanasiuk Congratulations on the launch! Biggest challenge for me was stopping my boy from going up the stairs to a window that looked over the street!!

Looking forward to using the app :)

@mark_opanasiukThis is awesome! I’ll definitely try it out with Teddy! He’s around 2 years old, we actually adopted him and we are unsure about his story, he’s such a good boy, though patience isn’t always his strong suit when it comes to staying or waiting 😅. But I’m excited to give this a try!

@mark_opanasiuk 
That’s such a wonderful mission, Mark! 🐾
As a fellow dog lover, I really appreciate how you combine expert guidance, AI, and positive reinforcement in one place - it solves a real gap between offline training and chaotic online advice.

My biggest challenge as a dog parent is staying consistent with training when life gets busy - especially reinforcing good habits daily.

@kate_ramakaieva we were very selective when initially started to work on the app. We were lucky to partner with two dog training organisations. One of them was also teaching and training dog experts. They helped us to craft a content - video and text, tune up PawchieAI, make profound onboarding training materials for expanding experts team that work with us.

@busmark_w_nika  thanks ! this was the idea to play around it) next image will show the day when Pawchie met Kitty ))

@busmark_w_nika Glad you liked this idea 🙃

@polina_razzhyvina aaawhhh, what's the cutie's name?

@polina_razzhyvina so sweet!

@polina_razzhyvina he’s so cute 😍

@polina_razzhyvina such a sweetie 😍

If he got fingers instead of paws, he'd write to Pawchie directly, without me

@kdiadenko we need a comment from Barney!! 😍 Is there any chance of seeing him on video or smth? 🥹

@russ88 Hey Rustam 😎
Thanks for your attention to our product! Chack will definitely become a ChackChamp with us 🏆🥇

@russ88 thank you! wishing Chack to become a champ and win some competitions 😍

@yulia_chuzha Thanks, Yulia! We’ve heard this request a few times already — maybe it’s time to start thinking about PawChamp for Cats 😸

@yulia_chuzha Hi Yulia🤗
As a cat owner, I totally think we should work on an upgraded version of our app! Let’s keep pushing this idea forward! 🤪

@yulia_chuzha definitely! we will do a special Product Hunt launch for this!

@katssasa Thank you, Katsuhiro! We hope PawChamp will make professional dog training more accessible and enjoyable for everyone!

@katssasa Thank you for the support! It means a lot to us 🐶🐾

@peter_camp_la Hey, I am Viktoriia from PawChamp support team. I will be happy to answer your question. First of all, thank you for sharing your thoughts and concerns with us. We’re truly sorry to hear that your experience with PawChamp hasn’t met your expectations. It’s clear how much you care about your dog, and we understand that you want the best resources to communicate effectively with them.

We appreciate your feedback regarding the quality of our responses, and we take all comments seriously as we strive to improve our platform. Each dog and owner relationship is unique, and we aim to provide a personalized experience tailored to your needs.

To address your concerns and provide you with the support you deserve, we’d like to offer you a free consultation with one of our dog experts. All of them are trained and experienced, and we hope that this one-on-one session will provide you with valuable insights and advice that resonate with you.

Please contact us at support@paw-champ.com so we can arrange this consultation for you.

@peter_camp_la Hey Peter, thanks for being open and sharing your thoughts — we totally understand your concerns. I’m really sorry to hear the app didn’t meet your expectations.

Just to clarify — our team includes certified trainers and behavior experts from different countries, including Ukraine, the US, and the EU. We’re proud of our international background because it lets us bring together global best practices in dog training. The locations on LinkedIn reflect where some of our experts collaborate or work remotely from, not an attempt to mislead anyone.

As for the content — PawChamp isn’t meant to replace one-on-one sessions, but to give dog owners structured, science-based guidance they can follow daily. Still, your feedback about speed and personalization is super valuable, and we’re actively improving those areas right now.

@peter_camp_la I am sorry for your bad expirience. Please reach support@paw-champ.com and share what was bad in experts' answers, so we can try to make things right for you.

We have our R&D office in Ukraine since this one of the best countries (even in time of war) for:
1) highly skilled developers, designers, and marketers with great English.
2) cost of dog experts is also lower than in the USA that allows to make this professional service affordable to more people worldwide.
3) in general it is much cost-efficient to make R&D there compared with local labor in the US.

As an international startup we have a local egal entities to operate legally in different regions (the EU and the US, for example).

@peter_camp_la I also noted too generic responses from so-called experts. I can find it in youtube. Their AI chat is cringe, feels like API GPT layer with prompts. Cringe 2 - I noted that they launched few years ago as app, and now they try to present themself as a new startup

Guys, there’s absolutely no problem with being from Ukraine — that’s perfectly fine. The issue is indicating on LinkedIn fake location. When Mark Opanasiuk lists a U.S. location while actually working from Ukraine, it causes confusion and hurts credibility.

Mark, since you’re not in the U.S., please update your LinkedIn location to Ukraine. Simple as that — just be transparent.

@farhan_nazir55 definitely! we thought about this - but little bit further down the roadmap. community building features done right are not easy...
