What if our organization does not use breed labels?

Shelterluv can support your decision to not use breed labels.

  1. Go to Configuration > General Shelter > Animal Population > Breeds
  2. Select "Dog"
  3. Uncheck all breeds except:
    • Mixed Breed (Large)
    • Mixed Breed (Medium)
    • Mixed Breed (Small)

Now your team will only have these three options to select from and can focus on the dog's individual traits. (Note that this only affects the Primary Breed field; all breeds will still be available to select from in the Secondary Breed field.)

Please also review the bottom section of this article to understand how this will affect your auto-uploads to aggregators of adoptable animals.
