KennelBoss vs Dog Breeder Pro
One plan, everything in it, thirty-five countries — and no way to get paid.
$449/year billed yearly. Marketplace listings, buyer video calls and the $500 reservation deposit are included.
$149.99/year, excluding VAT billed yearly. One plan, everything included. The annual price works out as two months free. VAT is added where it applies.
Dog Breeder Pro is the simplest proposition in this comparison: a single plan with every feature in it, apps on both phones, and no tier chart to read. It covers pedigrees, health records, litter histories, contacts and a website builder. What its public pages do not describe is any way for a buyer to find you or pay you.

How this was checked. Every price and capability above was read from the vendor’s own pricing and features pages on 15 September 2026. Where a vendor does not publish an answer we say so rather than guess. Software changes — if something here is out of date, tell us and we will correct it.

KennelBoss publishes this comparison and sells one of the products in it. Product names and trademarks belong to their respective owners and are used here to identify the products being compared.
Credit where it is due.
- One plan with everything in it — no feature gated behind an upgrade you discover later.
- Real apps on iOS and Android, which not everyone in this group has.
- Free data import help and a standard-format export, so you are not locked in at either end.
- Used by breeders in 35+ countries, which shows in how portable the product feels.
The gaps that cost you a sale.
- No marketplace, so buyers arrive from wherever you already send them.
- Payment processing and deposit collection are not described on its public pages.
- No video calls, no held balance, no transport.
- Prices are quoted excluding VAT, so the number you pay may not be the number on the page.
Pick Dog Breeder Pro when this is your problem.
A breeder who wants one honest subscription, every feature switched on, and a good phone app — and who already handles money and buyers their own way.
Pick KennelBoss when this is your problem.
Dog Breeder Pro and KennelBoss are answering different halves of the job. Dog Breeder Pro is the better-priced record system with an admirably simple plan. KennelBoss is the one that lists the puppy, books the call, takes the $500 deposit and holds the balance until you confirm the hand-off. Pick on which half is currently costing you money.
The short version: KennelBoss exists to market your litters, book the video chat, and collect the $500 reservation deposit that takes the puppy off the market. You handle the remaining balance at pickup, and it is held until you confirm the hand-off. That is the job — see litter marketing, buyer video calls and payment protection.
Does Dog Breeder Pro take payments from buyers?+
Not that its public pages describe. As of 15 September 2026 neither its pricing nor its features pages mention payment processing, deposit collection or a checkout. If that has changed, we will update this page — tell us and we will check.
Is $14.99 the price I actually pay?+
It is quoted excluding VAT, so where VAT applies the charge is higher. The annual plan is $149.99, also excluding VAT, which the site describes as two months free.
Which has the better phone app?+
Dog Breeder Pro ships on iOS and Android; KennelBoss is on iPhone, with the full dashboard on the web. If Android is non-negotiable for you, that is a real point for Dog Breeder Pro today.
Can KennelBoss do what Dog Breeder Pro does?+
The record-keeping overlaps almost completely — pedigrees, litters, health records, contacts, a website. The difference is on the selling side: marketplace listings, buyer video calls, a $500 reservation deposit collected for you, and contracts signed in the app.

Software is cheap. An empty spot in a litter is not.
List the litter where buyers are looking, meet them on video, and take the deposit that holds the puppy.
