Manage Calendar

In the Manage Calendar tab you will see instructions on how to sign up for our third party calendar provider Loxi. You will see a coupon code that you can use, and at the time of this writing allows you manage and share a fully functional online calendar for a flat fee of $7.50 per month. Dog Sense Community is not affiliated with Loxi, nor do we receive a commission, we just think it is a great tool you will find really helpful for your rescue.

Note: Your portal comes with an example calendar to demonstrate what it will look like, but this calendar is not editable. If you decide you don’t want a calendar at all, please let us know and we can remove that feature from your portal entirely.
