Built around the jobs dog breeders actually do
See what each litter really cost and earned
Log the stud fee, vet bills, supplies and registration. The sheet totals them, splits the cost across the puppies, shows the profit or loss, and works out the expected whelp date.
Stud fee, vet, suppliesCost per puppyFollow each puppy to go-home day
Collar color, weekly weights for eight weeks, microchip and registration, plus the vaccine, deworming, vet check and contract checklist. When every item is done, the puppy shows as ready.

Each buyer’s deposit, how they paid, whether it is refundable, their place in line and the puppy they are matched with, so no puppy gets promised twice.
Deposit, refund termsDeposits heldKnow which dogs are cleared to breed
Record OFA hips, elbows, eyes and cardiac results and the DNA panel for each dog. The sheet marks who is cleared and who still needs testing.

Before you buy
I breed more than one breed. Will it work?
Yes. The breed list is a dropdown you edit on the Settings tab, so you can track any breed or mix across every tab.
How does the cleared-to-breed check work?
Enter each dog’s OFA hips, elbows, eyes and cardiac results and its DNA panel on the Breeding Dogs tab. A dog shows as cleared only when all five pass, and the Dashboard shows your clearance rate.
Does it replace kennel management software?
For records, yes: litters, puppies, health clearances, deposits, expenses and tax planning, for a one-time price instead of a monthly subscription. It does not take online payments or send reminders.
What do I get?
An Excel file (.xlsx), a filled-in sample to look at, and a quick-start PDF guide with a link that makes your own copy in Google Sheets.
How does delivery work?
You get your download links right after checkout, and Stripe emails your receipt. There is nothing to ship and nothing to wait for.
How do I set it up in Google Sheets?
Open the quick-start PDF and click the Google Sheets link. Google makes a copy in your own Drive that only you can edit. You need a free Google account.
Will it work on a Mac?
Yes. It works in Excel on Mac and Windows, and in Google Sheets in any browser.
I'm not a spreadsheet person. Is that a problem?
No. You only type in the yellow cells. Everything in gray works itself out, and the Start Here tab shows you where to begin.
Can I get a refund?
Templates are digital downloads, so sales are final. If a file won't open, is broken or doesn't match its description, email hello@cleanpixelstudios.com within 30 days and we'll fix it, or refund you if we can't.
What if I get stuck?
Email hello@cleanpixelstudios.com and we'll help you get it working.
