DogMap

Help us!

DogMap is a non-profit project of the Pfotenpiloten. We are committed to assistance dogs. Assistance dogs enable people with disabilities to live more mobile and autonomous lives – but they usually have to be financed themselves.
We support qualified teams through the Assistance Dog Foundation and advocate for access rights. We can only do all this with your help: together we can create solutions.

This is how we help assistance dog teams:

Pfotenpiloten has been committed to assistance dogs and the access rights of teams since 2015. DogMap was created during our three-year campaign for the German Federal Ministry of Labor and Social Affairs and we have been expanding it ever since.


Assistance Dog Foundation, our subsidiary, ensures quality through independent, comprehensive quality assurance and establishes support structures for qualified assistance dog teams.

Both Assistance Dog Foundation and Pfotenpiloten do not train assistance dogs themselves and are strictly independent. This allows us to keep the interests of all parties in mind: not only of the owners, but also of the dogs, the trainers, the public, and the sponsors.

Supporting assistance dog teams – with your help!

DogMap was developed by Pfotenpiloten during our access campaign Assistance Dogs Welcome for the Federal Ministry of Labor and Social Affairs. The app is now a gift to all dog owners, forever!
DogMap supports the important work of the Assistance Dog Foundation.
Together we build effective solutions for assistance dog teams.
