Which app for dog and cat breeders?

Whether you are a passionate hobby breeder or an experienced professional, running a kennel or cattery without a dedicated digital tool means a heavy administrative load: tracking matings, managing litters, health records, contracts with buyers, accounts... Son Espace Éleveur is an app designed specifically to bring all these tasks together in one place and save you time.

What a breeding app absolutely must do

1. Manage pedigrees and breeding stock

Pedigrees are at the heart of any serious breeding programme. Son Espace Éleveur lets you enter and view each animal's family tree over several generations. Relationships between breeding animals are visible at a glance, making it easier to plan matings and avoid inbreeding. Pedigree certificates and official documents are scanned and stored in each animal's profile.

2. Track matings, pregnancies and litters

The app records mating dates, calculates expected whelping or queening dates and tracks the development of each litter. Every puppy or kitten has its own profile from birth: sex, birth weight, colour, markings. Weekly weight tracking lets you spot straight away a puppy that is not gaining enough weight.

3. Keep a complete health record for every animal

Every breeding animal and every youngster has a complete digital health record: vaccines and boosters with automatic reminders, parasite treatments, genetic test results, screening for hereditary diseases, vet visits. This record follows the animal throughout its life with you, then is handed over to the buyer.

4. Generate sale and reservation contracts

Son Espace Éleveur lets you generate personalised sale and reservation contracts in seconds. The animal's details (identification, vaccines, date of birth) are filled in automatically. That is a real time saver when a litter of eight puppies leaves in the same week.

5. Hand over the complete record to the buyer

This is one of the features breeders using Son Espace Éleveur value most: in a single click, the animal's complete digital health record — vaccines, treatments, history, photos, pedigree — is transferred to the new family. From day one, the buyer gets a full life history of their animal, which shows the breeder's work in its best light.

6. The public breeder page

Son Espace Éleveur includes a public page visible on the internet, presenting your kennel or cattery, its values and the animals available. This online showcase is optimised for search engines (SEO) and can be shared on social media. Future buyers can read about your breeding programme and get in touch directly.

7. Activity logbook and fitness tracking

Each animal's logbook records daily activities: walks, exercise sessions, training sessions, competition or show results. For breeders of working or sporting dogs, this detailed fitness tracking is particularly valuable.

8. Simple accounting

Tracking your breeding income (sales, reservations) and expenses (food, vet, equipment) is a must, both for running the business and for tax purposes. Son Espace Éleveur includes a simple accounting module, so hobby breeders can keep track without separate accounting software.
