Ring Doorbells Now Help Locate Lost Dogs
Ring is expanding its Search Party pet finder service, making it accessible to a broader audience through the Ring Neighbors app. This initiative aims to assist pet owners in locating lost dogs more efficiently.
New Features of the Ring Neighbors App
Previously exclusive to Ring device owners, the Search Party service now allows anyone in the U.S. to use the app for free. Users can upload a photo of their lost pet to seek community assistance.
How it Works
After registering in the app, users can share images of their missing dogs. Neighbors equipped with AI-enabled Ring cameras can help by notifying owners if their pet is detected nearby.
Impact of the Search Party Service
- Since its launch, the service has reunited owners with more than one lost dog daily.
- This effective tool enhances community engagement to support pet recovery.
Commitment to Animal Shelters
In addition to the app’s functionality, Ring is investing $1 million to provide camera systems for animal shelters across the country. This commitment aims to support lost pet recovery efforts further.
The Power of Community
The integration of technology and community effort through Ring’s Search Party service exemplifies the potential for pets to be safely returned to their owners. By leveraging local resources and technology, pet owners can effectively increase their chances of reuniting with their lost dogs.
