Articles on: Your Animals & Records

The animal records tab

Open an animal's profile and choose Records to see its history, from vaccines to show wins. The same place shows the care that is due and every way to add more. What you can see and change depends on your access to the animal.


The Records views


A row of views sits at the top of Records:


  • Records: the full history, plus the tools to add and find entries.
  • Measurements: weights and other measurements, with trends over time.
  • Milk: milk logs. It shows for female goats, cattle, sheep and other animals that are often milked. Visitors see it only when milk records are shared.
  • Care: the animal's care plans and recent feedings. Only people who manage its records see it.
  • Shows & Titles: show results and titles. Visitors see it only when show details are shared.


Add or bring in records


If you manage the animal's records, these tools sit above the history:


  • Quick capture: type or say what happened, then choose Draft record. Creatures fills in a record for you to check, and nothing saves until you do. See Quick capture: turn a note into records.
  • Add record: opens the full list of record types for this animal. See Adding a record.
  • Records menu: a short menu with your recent types, From photos of your notes and Print a tracking sheet, breeding and identification shortcuts, Show result and Group records into a health concern. The last row, such as Browse all 17 record types, opens the full list.
  • Import records: bring in many past records from vet papers, spreadsheets or photos. See Importing records.


See what is due


The Care schedule sits above the history when care is due soon. Each item shows its date and buttons such as Mark done, Skip, Snooze and Edit reminder. The buttons change with the kind of care. An insurance renewal, for example, offers Update policy.

A health concern groups the records about one illness or injury. While one is active, a card above the history shows how many days it has run, with Add update, Log treatment and Resolve. See When an animal is sick or injured.


Find an older entry


Use the filters under Record history. With fewer than 6 records, choose Filters to open them.


  1. Type a name, note or detail in Search records.
  2. Narrow the list with Care kind (one vaccine, medicine or other kind of care), Record type or Source. Source splits records you added directly from those that came From care plans or From groups.
  3. Under Order, choose Newest first or Oldest first.
  4. Open Date range to set dates, then choose Apply filters. After you filter, Clear resets the list.

Reminder history lists past reminders. Imported entries carry an Imported label, and a Private entry is hidden from visitors.


To fix or remove an entry, open its three-dot menu and choose Edit or Delete when they are offered. Care marked done by mistake offers the owner Remove from records once its Undo has passed. If care was marked done and then undone, its entry shows Entry undone and no longer counts as care given. You can't edit it, but you can still choose Delete from that menu.


A new animal shows No records yet. Choose Add record above it to start.


Download a record packet


Download packet makes a PDF of the animal's records to hand to a vet, registry, buyer or insurer.


  1. Under Quick pick, choose Vet visit for health, care and ID details, or Everything.
  2. Adjust Include, Record detail and Paper size if you need to.
  3. Choose Print or Download PDF.


Vet visit also turns on Include private records. Anyone who holds the PDF can read those records, so share it with care.


Every choice, and what the PDF looks like, is in Print an animal's records or download a PDF.
