Sharing & Embedding Your Forms

Video walkthrough: Watch on Loom (link coming soon)
Your forms in BreederBuddy are your application forms — you build them in Applications, then share them with families as a link or right on your website. Anyone can fill one out without a BreederBuddy login, and every submission lands back in Applications. To build or edit the questions on a form, see Applications.

​
What You Can Do Here

  • Copy a direct link to your form to send by email, text, or social media
  • Embed your form on any website that accepts HTML
  • Change the submit button’s text and color
  • Test your form before sharing it
  • Print a blank copy of your form as a PDF

​
How It Works

  1. Click Applications in the left menu.
  2. Find your form and click Manage. The form opens on its Form Builder tab.
  3. Click Share Application Form near the top of the page. The Share Your Application Form window opens.
  4. Click Share a Direct Link to expand it.
  5. Click Copy next to the link. You’ll see a “Copied to clipboard!” message.
  6. Paste the link wherever you like — an email, a text, a social post, or a button on your website.

​
Embedding Your Form on Your Website

  1. Follow steps 1–3 above.
  2. Click Embed on Your Website to expand it.
  3. Click Copy next to the code. You’ll see a “Copied to clipboard!” message.
  4. In your website builder (WordPress, Wix, Squarespace, etc.), add an HTML or embed block where you want the form, and paste the code.
  5. Publish your page and open it to check that the form appears. It automatically resizes to fit your page.
Want the form built right into a BreederBuddy website instead? Open Built-In on Your BreederBuddy Website in the same window and click Reach out.

​
Customizing the Submit Button

  1. Open your form with Manage and click the Details tab.
  2. Click Edit Details (top right of that section).
  3. Fill in Submit Button Text (leave it blank to keep the default, “Submit Application”) and pick a Submit Button Color.
  4. Click Save. You’ll see an “Application Form updated” message, and your form uses the new button.

​
Testing Your Form

Open your form with Manage and click the Demo Form tab. This is your live form — fill it out and submit to see exactly what families see. A demo submission is a real submission: it appears in your Submissions tab and sends your usual notifications.

​
Printing a Blank Form

On the Form Builder tab, click Print PDF (top right) to download a printable blank copy of your form.

Tips & Common Questions

No — anyone with the link can fill out and submit your form.
A confirmation screen that says “Thanks, your submission is in.” They also get an Application Submission Receipt email. You can add your own message to it in Communications.
Name, Email, and Phone Number are required so BreederBuddy can create the contact. To fill in the contact’s address when you approve someone, click Add address fields on the Form Builder tab.
The form runs a quick spam check. Ad blockers and some privacy extensions block it, and the applicant will see a message saying so. Ask them to turn the blocker off for that page and reload, or try a different browser.
No — your form page is hidden from search results. Share the link or embed it on your website so families can find it.
