Overview
Under Kennel → Animals, each animal record holds identity, breed fields, photos, status, and notes. Those rows are referenced by litters, health records, and (when relevant) public or integration flows—so duplicate or sloppy entries multiply problems.
Recommended workflow
- Add the dog with clear name, breed, gender, and dates.
- Attach registration or identification details when you have them.
- Add health testing under Kennel → Health records with type, date, and result.
- Upload photos that match how you will present the dog publicly.
- Review the record before creating litters or younglings that reference it.
Practical note
Search for an existing animal before creating a second record with a slightly different spelling.
