Attachments
Video walkthrough: Watch on Loom (link coming soon)
Attachments is your central file library — every document, photo, PDF, and file you’ve uploaded to BreederBuddy lives here. While files can also be accessed directly from the dog, litter, or contact they belong to, this page gives you a single searchable view across everything you’ve uploaded.
What You Can Do Here
- Browse and search all files you’ve ever uploaded to BreederBuddy
- Filter by file type (images, PDFs, documents, spreadsheets, presentations, video, audio, archives)
- Filter by what a file is attached to (dogs, litters, events, contacts, health records, and more)
- Filter by the date range a file was uploaded
- Sort by upload date, last updated, name, size, or file extension
- Switch between a grid of previews and a detailed list
- View your storage usage
- Upload new files directly from this page

If I delete a file here, does it disappear from the dog or litter it was attached to?
If I delete a file here, does it disappear from the dog or litter it was attached to?
Yes — deleting a file removes it everywhere it’s referenced. Make sure you no longer need it before deleting.
Can I upload files directly here instead of from a dog's profile?

Yes — drop files into the upload box on the Attachments page. They’ll show as Unattached until you link them to a record.
What's the difference between Attachments and Gallery?
What's the difference between Attachments and Gallery?
Gallery is for photos you want displayed visually (like a photo album). Attachments is for documents and files. Both are stored here in your file library.
Do health records or other attachments show on my website?
Do health records or other attachments show on my website?
No. Your website only shows the photos in a dog’s or litter’s Gallery tab, and only when that dog or litter is public. Files on the Attachments tab (health records, contracts, PDFs, receipts) stay private in your account.
What file types can I upload to a dog's Gallery?
What file types can I upload to a dog's Gallery?
Photos only: JPG, PNG, GIF, WebP, HEIC (iPhone photos), TIFF, BMP, and AVIF. If you pick other files, BreederBuddy skips them and shows “Please select image files”. Videos, PDFs, and documents can still be uploaded on the Attachments tab, but they don’t appear in the Gallery or on your website.
