Main output
Pattern ViewPattern View for Bailey, age 13
Bailey's movement trouble started before the pain meds, but her appetite and soft poop changed after the meds began. Her energy also dropped on the same day as the appetite and bathroom changes. Even though the limp looked better by Friday, she was still slow getting up, so the mobility issue may still be worth discussing with the vet. The Friday walk video is saved with that day's note, so it can be opened during the appointment instead of digging through the camera roll.

Why not just use Notes?
Notes can hold everything. DogBrief helps connect what changed, when it changed, and what evidence goes with it, without hiding the full timeline.
Notes
- Stores long notes
- Photos and videos stay separate
- Hard to see what changed before or after medication
- Easy to forget which video matched which day
- You still have to scan everything yourself
DogBrief
- Keeps full notes grouped by date
- Attaches photos and videos to the right note
- Connects changes before and after meds
- Shows patterns across energy, movement, appetite, and bathroom changes
- Creates a pattern view to discuss with your vet
Clear purpose
Organization, not medical advice
DogBrief does not diagnose your dog or replace your vet. It helps organize what changed, when it changed, and what you noticed, so you can explain things more clearly.
