Proofer
Open app

Track the criteria you’re training against over time and see your dog’s actual progress.

Proofer tracks proofing criteria for each behavior and each dog. You log green or red for every criterion in a session, so you can see exactly where a behavior holds up and where it still needs work.

Why it exists

A start-line stay that holds in your living room can fall apart with a toy on the ground or with you ten feet away. A general training log or a streak counter shows that you trained. Proofer shows which criteria are solid, one criterion at a time, and keeps checking them after you’ve called them done.
