Features & Capabilities

Count my breaths is an app created for pet owners who have a pet living with heart disease.

Heart disease in dogs is nearly as common as with humans. Even though diet and exercise do play a role, most cases cannot be avoided. The exception is with heartworm disease which is responsible for about 13% of all dogs with heart disease. It is recommended to take your dogs to your veterinarian for routine checkups at least once a year and every 6 months for older dogs.

Fast breathing when resting or sleeping (more than 30 breaths per minute) is a sign of heart disease or heart failure. Home breathing rate should be evaluated at least once per day in all pets that have heart disease or heart failure and are now taking medications such as furosemide and pimobendan.

This app is still in its very early stages and is being developed because we have a pet with this condition ourselves. We would love to get feedback and feature requests as we grow this app in the future.

We do also have a web app although records do not transfer between the two at this time. If you would like to use the browser version of the app please visit us at https://countmybreaths.com

While this app does have an “Email records” button, it emails a CSV with only column names — not your pet’s actual data. I tried to contact the developer, but I’m pretty sure the contact form on the app website is broken. I would NOT recommend using this app, as it is not being maintained, and other users have also reported bugs in their reviews. Furthermore, it is impossible to get a refund if you do buy pro features.

My vet had asked me to count my kitties breathing a couple of times and I always forgot to do it AND forgot how she told me to do it. This app makes it so easy to do and I don’t have to write it down or keep track of it in a document or anything. It is all write at my fingertips. When I showed the app to the vet and how it kep track of stats too, she was very impressed and wrote the name down so she could give the info to other pet owners. We did have a bit of confusion because I couldn’t tell her how long it was counting for (we figured that out after starting the counter and seeing that it was counting for 30 seconds). But then I couldn’t tell her what the app was multiplying the breaths by. Then I remembered that I had counted 10 breaths but it listed 20 on the row of data. It would be really helpful if this info was listed somewhere for new users. Other than this lack of info which was needed by the vet, this app is really great and I will continue to use it.

I have used this tool for months, but something broke in the latest update so now you can only graph one week of data at a time. I’ve tried to contact the developer and never received a response. I also tried uninstalling / reinstalling which didn’t fix the issue and I lost all my data in the process. I hope this feature is fixed soon!
