Systems for Breeders

Centralize Every Pedigree and Puppy Placement

Professional breeders make money through the careful selection, whelping, and placement of quality litters. Leaks often occur in the manual management of high-volume inquiries, fragmented health record tracking, and the loss of qualified buyers during the long gap between breeding and take-home dates.

    Inquiry

    Prospective owners reach out via your website or social media to learn about upcoming litters.

    The breeder reviews applications, checks veterinary references, and conducts initial interviews.

    Waitlist

    Approved buyers pay a deposit and are placed in a queue for a specific sire and dam pairing.

    Whelping

    Updates are sent to the waitlist once the litter is born, including gender and color counts.

  6. 06

    Selection

    Buyers choose their puppy or are assigned one based on temperament testing at seven to eight weeks.

Where it leaks

Common problems for dog breeders.

01

Application Overload

Managing hundreds of puppy applications via email leads to qualified families being overlooked. Sorting through stacks of digital forms manually wastes hours that should be spent with the litter.

02

Waitlist Friction

Keeping a waitlist organized when families drop out or defer to a later season is a logistical hurdle. Without a clear system, you risk having unclaimed puppies when the litter is ready to leave.

03

Payment Tracking

Collecting deposits and final balances across different platforms makes accounting difficult. Chasing signatures for health guarantees and sales contracts often delays the pick up day.

04

Communication Gaps

Families expect frequent updates and photos once puppies are born. If you do not have an automated way to share progress, you will be constantly interrupted by individual text messages.

05

Record Keeping

Storing individual health clearances, deworming schedules, and microchip numbers in different places causes errors. Maintaining a clean digital trail for every dog in your program is essential for kennel club compliance.

Questions from dog breeders

How do I handle people who want to be on the list for a future year?

The system allows for multi year waitlist tagging. You can filter your database by preferred timing so that when a breeding is planned, you only reach out to families who indicated they are ready for a puppy during that specific season.

Can I store pedigree charts and genetic test results?

Yes. Each dog in your program has a dedicated profile where you can upload PDF results from laboratories and link to digital pedigree databases. This keeps your program organized for breed club audits.

What happens if I have more applicants than puppies?

The system can automatically notify remaining applicants that the current litter is fully reserved. It offers them the option to roll their application over to the next available breeding or remain in a general interest pool.

Will this help with the flurry of messages after I post a new litter?

Absolutely. An AI chat assistant can handle the initial surge of common questions about coat color, temperament, and parentage. This filters out casual inquiries so you only spend time talking to serious, vetted buyers.

How are contracts and health guarantees handled?

We build a workflow that requires a digital signature on your legal documents before a final invoice is even sent. This ensures you never have a puppy leave your kennel without a fully executed agreement in place.
