About PuppyGoHomePacket

This exists because assembling a go home packetis nine-tenths the same work eight times over. The pedigree, the parents’ health tests, the feeding plan, the vet, the worming dates and the breeder’s letter are identical in every puppy’s copy; only the photo, the name, the collar colour, the microchip number and the weights differ. Every tool a breeder had for the job — a Word file, a Canva design, a fillable PDF — is a form that gets filled in once per puppy, so the identical nine-tenths gets retyped once per puppy too. The longer version of that argument, with the honest case for buying a puppy packet templateinstead, is on its own page.

Hobby and show breeders with one to four litters a year, who already do this properly and want the paperwork to show it.

Why it works the way it does

The litter is entered once and the packets are generated.That is the whole design, and everything else follows from it. It is why the weights are a grid with dates down the side and puppies across the top rather than one chart per puppy — that is the order a litter is actually weighed in. It is why sires and dams are stored as dogs rather than as fields on a litter, so the second litter out of the same dam does not mean typing thirty pedigree names again. And it is why a correction on go-home morning is one edit and one re-export rather than eight files opened in a hurry.

There is no account. Nothing to sign up for, no password, and no waiting for a verification email before you can see whether the thing is any good. Your litter is saved in your own browser instead of on a server, which is the simplest arrangement that works and keeps your buyers’ details out of somebody else’s system as a side-effect. The cost of it is real and worth knowing: the litter is onthat computer, in that browser, so backing it up is your job, and the editor is built to make it a two-second one. The privacy page has the full account.

You pay per litter, not per month.$29 covers one litter and every puppy in it, and the kennel year is $99. A monthly subscription would bill through the months a hobby breeder has no puppies in, which is the objection that ends the conversation — and it would have priced a single-purpose tool above most of the full breeder-management suites.

The free tier is the entire editor, with a full preview.You can build every packet for your whole litter, with your own dogs, photos, weights and pedigree in them, and look at every page before you decide anything. Exports carry a diagonal SAMPLE watermark until you buy a pass, and a pass also reads the rest of that litter’s photographed paperwork once the first three pages have been read for nothing. Nobody should be asked to pay for a document they have not seen.

What it deliberately does not do

It is not breeder management software. There is no buyer CRM, no waitlist, no deposits and no accounting — if you need those, a suite will serve you better than this will.

It also writes no contracts, bills of sale, health guarantees or deposit terms — not as templates, not as optional pages, not later. Those are legal agreements between you and your buyer, and a document generator that drafts them is giving legal advice with no idea which jurisdiction it is in.

And it generates no health or nutrition advice. The vaccination, worming and feeding pages record what you entered. The software does not suggest a vaccine, compute a next-due date from a product name, or recommend an amount of food. A next-due date you type is your note about what your vet told you; one the software calculates is veterinary advice from a program that has never seen the dog.

The pedigree page is headed "as recorded by the breeder" and carries no registry name or logo and never the word certified. A family who thinks the sheet in the folder is their registration paperwork will not chase the real thing.

Who is behind it

A small independent software shop that builds a family of narrow, well-made tools rather than one large one. This one is built and maintained by one person, which is why the answer to "can you add X" is usually a straight yes or a straight no rather than a roadmap.

Questions, corrections and "you have got this wrong for my breed" are all welcome — the contact form reaches the person who builds this. If you have found a mistake in what a page here claims about breeding practice, that is the most useful message you can send.
