New limit for pedigree reports
We currently have more than 200 requests waiting to be reviewed, and we cannot process them as quickly as we would like. To help us manage the queue, each user can now submit up to 5 pedigree reports per week. The limit resets every Monday at midnight (Prague time).
Reports already submitted remain in the queue. When sending a new report, please include all relevant details so we can review it without having to ask for more information.
Thank you for your patience and understanding.
Faster personal message loading
I made some changes to the database, and private messages now load much faster.
news🚨 Important notice regarding Pedigree Database
Recently, a user on our database was repeatedly bypassing the systems security measures most likely thanks to their IT skills.
Each time this behavior was flagged (our system reliably detects such activity), the user downplayed the situation and claimed it was a misunderstanding. Despite being warned multiple times to stop, the behavior kept recurring.
Yesterday we uncovered another related issue, and that was the final straw.
🔒 The user has been permanently banned from the Pedigree Database.
This is not merely about breaking standard rules that apply to every user. In this case, it involved deliberately circumventing database security mechanisms for personal advantage and to the detriment of other users.
We want to assure all fair users that we take security and a level playing field seriously, and this kind of conduct will not be tolerated.
Thank you to everyone who uses our database fairly. 🙏
Pedigree Database Team
Apologies for today's minor outages when creating pedigrees
We apologize to all Pedigree Database users for the intermittent errors that may have occurred today while saving dog pedigrees.
Throughout the day, we were intensively working on fixing a security issue that required significant time and temporarily affected the stability of the save process. The fix was necessary after we discovered that one user had been repeatedly bypassing standard protections and causing damage to the database.
The situation has now been resolved, and we have implemented additional safeguards to better protect all users data.
Thank you for your patience and understanding.

📩 New feature in Private Messages Safe Delete & Trash
Weve just added a new security feature to the private messaging system:
🔹 Trash (Recycle Bin) and
🔹 Safe deletion instead of permanent removal.
From now on, when someone deletes a conversation, it is removed only from their own view and moved to Trash.
The message thread is physically deleted from the database only if both sides delete it permanently.
Why did we implement this?
Because several users in the past deleted our mutual conversations after they had been caught lying or using insults simply to make the evidence disappear once they ran out of arguments.
This new system prevents that behavior.
No one can silently erase history for the other side anymore.
✔️ You can search in Trash
✔️ You can restore messages
✔️ You can permanently delete only your own copy
✔️ The other partys copy always remains untouched
Transparency, fairness, and protection against manipulation matter.
New proccess - Adding a new dog
We have just added a new feature to the Pedigree Database that significantly improves the process of adding a new dog and checking for possible duplicates.
When you enter a dog name such as:
SCAR KNL'S SHEENA BLACK
the system does not search only for the exact full name. Instead, it also looks for all dogs that contain any part of this name
for example SCAR, KNL'S, SHEENA, or BLACK. This is intentional, to make sure that no possible existing record is overlooked. Because of this, the initial search can sometimes return thousands or even tens of thousands of results.
To make this step clearer and faster, we have added:
✔ Pagination easy browsing through large result lists
✔ Refined search inside the results you can now further narrow the list by entering, for example, SHEENA BLACK, which will usually lead directly to the exact match
This makes it much easier to verify whether the dog already exists in the database, or to quickly confirm that it does not exist yet and should be added as a new entry. The whole registration process is now faster, more precise, and more user-friendly, even when working with very large datasets.
