✨ Testimonials
What dog breeders are saying about BreederBuddy
“As a busy dog breeder, BreederBuddy has become my second brain that I lean on constantly”
– Heidi Emmendorfer, Sonnenfeld Shepherds
I cannot rave ENOUGH about this breeding program software! The genius behind it, Kenny, is absolutely wonderful to work with, he is very responsive and is always willing to troubleshoot and communicate.
I breed dachshunds and since having switched to breeder buddy, it has been a game changer! He listens to breeders and takes our ideas and implements them to make the website/software even better! I love the design and the health reports for my dogs, keeping track of all their information is far less stressful and chaotic now.
Kenny even helped build me my very own breeding website! 1000/1000 would recommend this platform to any and ALL breeders! Thank you for making my life easier and for being there every step of the way!
We used Kenny to build a custom website and although it was a bit out of the norm for him as we are a Rescue as opposed to Breeders he did an amazing job!
In addition to the care he took to build the site he also set aside time to meet with me to make any changes or adjustments as well as to teach me the ropes so I can make adjustments and handle things in the future. (Except the server and super technical security stuff) he will continue to handle that and endure the hosting is good.
Breeder Buddy has been an absolute game changer for our breeding program! The software has allowed us to stay more organized with our program dogs but also with our communication and payments with our customers as well. Breeder Buddy has created more time for us to focus on what matters the most, our dogs and our customers.
Behind every good software is an exceptional support team and that does not lack with Breeder Buddy either, the support team is just short of amazing.
Breeder Buddy changed our lives and our breeding program for the better, I would recommend it to anyone that is running a serious breeding program.
Breeder Buddy has been a fantastic addition to my breeding program. It’s clean, reliable, and thoughtfully designed for how breeders actually work. The communication features keep everything organized in one place, the health tracking is intuitive, and the record-keeping tools make it easy to stay on top of each litter’s details.
It feels like it was built by people who truly understand the rhythm and demands of a responsible breeding operation.
I’m grateful to have a tool that supports professionalism, clarity, and great customer service for my puppy families. Highly recommended.
Kenny was incredible to work with. His deep knowledge of software development and website layouts made him the perfect fit to create both the Breeder Buddy app and the Arrowhead Labradoodles website.
