Helping Paw Adoption Webside
Project for UX Design Course with Google (Fictional)
Project Overview
The Problem:
Current pages have no available pictures of animals so it’s harder to attract people to come and adopt animals. There is as well no booking option so you don’t know if the same animals are still available that you have seen some time ago.
The Goal:
Create easy to use website that will attract people to adopt animals.
Pain Points:
-
Photos
Users can’t empathise with animals cause they can’t see them.
-
Booking
Make it available to book animal so that user is sure it’s gonna be available for adoption when arrive.
-
Adoption Stories
The app will analyse bater durability and include weather conditions to ensure correctness of prediction for need for next charge
-
Animal Profiles
Make it possible to choose what qualities we are looking for in animals. Family dog, allergies, adventure buddy etc.


Bianca
I’m looking for an animal to do everything with, yoga, walks, holidays. That’s why it’s so important to me that I know who I’ll be taking home. It would be great to have website with animals descriptions and evaluation so that I can do my additional reacher and adopt when I’m 1000% sure.

Erik
Erik is a business man who understands that there is a lot of animals in shelters that need help. He as well want to get a dog for his daughters birthday. Unfortunately him and his wife have very different schedules and it’s hard to go together to the shelter without his daughter knowing. And parents both must decide on one dog. Erik is afraid that if he goes to the shelter and then comes back home to discuss it with his wife when they will make up their mid that dog will be gone by this time. Shelter is far away as well so it’s inconvenient to travel
LO-FI Prototype:

Groups:
During my reaserch I’ve found out that there are generally 3 main groups that look for animals :
Elderly - looking for smal sometimes older dogs, cats to company them for whatever they have left of life
Family - parents looking to adopt puppies, young dogs, turtles, parrots, and other small animals for their children to take care of and learn responsibility
Single - people who live alone and want to have cat, dog companion. As well active ppl looking for hiking buddies etc.

Real Insights:
Lot of pages had information about races of dogs. But lets be honest a lot of animals ending up in the shelters are after : being abandoned, abused etc. which has impact on their personality.
I wanted to create a page where each animal have their own profile and easy to understand information relating their personality.


Usability Study:
It's missing search option
It need filters when searching for a pet
More addicional

What I learned:
I’ve learned how accessibility is important in creating a project and how some things you’re think might be accessible are not and you have to always check yourself on your bias.
