Dogs & Breeding Records
Every Dog, Every Litter, Every Record — One Place
Dog profiles, litters, heat cycles, pedigrees, and genetics — organized automatically so you can focus on your program, not your filing system.
Sound familiar?
Most breeders are doing this the hard way
- Dog information split across a notebook, a spreadsheet, and three different apps
- Heat cycle dates lost in your camera roll or a sticky note on the fridge
- Pedigrees saved as static PDFs that have to be manually updated
- Litter records scattered between texts with buyers, a paper puppy log, and your memory
Every dog in your program, searchable and always up to date
Every dog, every detail — organized and always current
Create rich profiles for every dog in your program: photos, registration info, tags, status, health records, and more. Search, filter, and find anything in seconds.
- Photos, registration numbers, microchip IDs, and tags

We used Kenny to build a custom website and 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.

FAQs
Frequently asked questions about dog breeding records software
What is dog breeding records software?
Dog breeding records software is a tool that keeps all your breeding program data in one place — dog profiles, litters, health records, pedigrees, heat cycles, buyer information, and more. BreederBuddy is designed specifically for serious breeders who want to run a professional program without juggling spreadsheets, notebooks, and separate apps.
How does BreederBuddy organize dog profiles?
Each dog gets a dedicated profile with photos, registration numbers, microchip IDs, status tags, health records, pedigree links, and a full history of litters and pairings. Everything is searchable and connected — you can go from a dog's profile directly to their litter history, their buyer's records, or their pedigree in one click.
Can I track individual puppies within a litter?
Yes. Each litter has individual records for every puppy — including collar color, sex, coat, weight history, milestone dates, and buyer assignment. You can track a puppy from birth through go-home day without switching between views.
Can I track heat cycles and predict the next one?
Yes. BreederBuddy logs every heat cycle with phases and notes. It calculates your dam's average interval from historical data and forecasts when the next heat is likely — giving you proactive calendar reminders instead of guesswork.
Does BreederBuddy include pedigree tracking?
Yes. You can build multi-generational pedigrees inside BreederBuddy, export them as printable PDFs, and share them with buyers via a public link. Pedigrees are connected to your dog profiles so they update automatically as you add data.
Does BreederBuddy work for cat breeders too?
Yes. BreederBuddy supports cat breeding programs as well as dog programs. All record-keeping, pedigree, genetics, and health tools work for both. Switch your program type in Settings > Preferences.
