What is AskMambo?

AskMambo is a smart assistant for dog parents. It gives instant, personalized answers about your dog’s food, behavior, and health—plus fun extras like “vibe checks” that guess your pup’s mood from a photo.

Always free, AskMambo also connects you to an active community of dog parents where you can join local pup meet-ups, group play dates, and connect with others who share your breed.

Please Note: AskMambo can guide you with everyday dog-parent questions, but it doesn’t replace professional veterinary care. For any medical issues or emergencies, always consult your vet.
