REGISTRATIONS

Q: Do I need to register?

A: Registration is not necessary for researching pedigrees, but it is free and recommended, to receive our Newsletter. Registration is also necessary to claim your dogs already in the database and as a first step towards adding new untitled dogs or to use advanced features. A  low cost Subscription is necessary for Registered Users to use the advanced features, such as creating Trial Breedings, printing pedigrees, adding Notes or Favorites, etc.


Q: What features are available to me if I register?


A: Registered users can add their titled dogs, if they are not yet entered. We add or update dogs with new Conformation titles, also many Sports titled dogs every month, so check dog's registered name (without titles, such as Ch) on QUICK SEARCH first. If not in the system, send us scan or phone photo of dog's registration or official pedigree. After the additions are approved, we'll save the dogs you entered under your account for you to add a photograph. If your dogs are already in the database they can be "claimed" and moved under your name.

A: Click on REGISTER in the upper right corner of the screen.  Enter your email address at the prompt, then follow the directions in the email you receive.  Be certain to enter your email address correctly, or the confirmation from Pedigree Lines will be unable to reach you.

Q: How do I log in?

Then click on the LOGIN button immediately below.  If you logged in correctly, the upper right corner of the screen will display  LOGOUT, and the drop-down menu will now include My....  If  you misspelled your user name or gave an incorrect password, the Login boxes will continue to be displayed. 





Q: What should I do if I lose my password? 
 


A: Click on Forgot your password? in the upper right corner of the screen.  Enter your email address at the prompt, then follow the directions in the email you receive.  Be certain that you enter your email address exactly as it is written in your Pedigree Lines account, or the new password from Pedigree Lines will be unable to reach you.

Q: Can I edit a dog I didn't enter?

A: If you are the dog's owner or breeder we'll re-assign the dog to you permanently. If you noticed an error or found a duplicate we'll look into it and fix it. If you want to adopt a kennel of the past, we can arrange it. If you are knowledgeable in pedigrees we can work together in various ways. Contact us

Q: How can I look up a dog?
A: There are two ways, one is to type the exact dog's name (without titles, like Ch) in the QUICK SEARCH box, above Login.  Unless you are 100% sure of the exact dog's name avoid typing the kennel name. You may enter it with an apostrophe and the name was registered without apostrophe, so it will not come up. Instead, look up the rest of the name. Example, if looking for Ch Confetti's Morning Mist, look up Morning Mist. If the dog is in the database it will show up. Also, you can look up a dog or dogs in the Advanced Search area, just click on the tab SEARCH.
