Abstract
A cloud-based software can be utilized by both breeder and clinic or veterinarian. The breeder and clinic or veterinarian can share profiles for a specific canine or a group of canines. Information entered, such as progesterone results, will prompt automatic notification, email, and text messaging between users. Parameters will be set by clinic or breeder allowing the system to follow specific commands within the breeding process. At the end of the breeding process, a PDF summary will be automatically generated for export.
Claims20
A computerized system for sharing breeding and/or animal related data among peers comprising:
- a non-transitory computer readable medium comprising a processor, a memory, an operating system, and a compiler configured to communicate, analyze, and manage aspects related to animal breeding and/or health;
- a cloud-based storage system for storing information related to said aspects;
- a software application executable by the non-transitory medium and stored on the cloud-based storage system;
- and
- a sensor for identifying an animal based upon a physical characteristic or an identifier associated with the animal;
- wherein the software application is configured to:
- provide varying levels of access to said aspects depending on a type of user;
- automatically calculate and/or schedule tests, appointments, services, and/or health related tasks based on customizable input parameters specific to the breeding and/or care of the animal;
- and
- retrieve digital data related to at least some of said aspects for the associated animal subsequent to the sensor identifying the animal.
A method for authenticating identification of animals comprising:
- storing aspects related to animal breeding and/or health on a cloud-based storage system;
- customizing said aspects to include at least a health condition of an animal or a process for caring for the animal;
- communicating, via a distributed ledger, said aspects to at least two different types of users;
- and
- restricting further editing of some of the aspects based upon the type of user.
A method of managing health and/or genetic information of animals comprising:
- storing aspects related to animal breeding and/or health on a cloud-based storage system;
- automatically scheduling appointments, reminders, and/or tasks to be performed based on initial data entered into the cloud-based storage system, said initial data identifying at least a type of user;
- and
- notifying person(s) of said appointments, reminders, and/or tasks.
