Question:  Which fields are mandatory in Adopt a Pet?

Detailed Answer: 

The following fields are required in Adopt a Pet. If you do not include the information below, the pet profile will not show up in Adopt a Pet OR it will show up and there will be no photo.

  • Pet’s Name
  • Featured Image
  • Breed
  • Color
  • Gender
  • Weight
  • Birthdate
  • Full Description
NOTES:
  1. Auto Import: The auto-import WILL wipe out any information that you manually add to Adopt a Pet. This means that even if you add a dog or cat that is not in Buzz, the next time the auto-import sends data from Buzz, that dog or cat will be erased from Adopt a Pet
  2. Auto Import: Please understand that uploaded data is different than manually added data so if you find “I could do that manually, now I can’t” that is a function of Adopt a Pet’s upload, not Buzz
  3. “Pending Adoption”: If a pet is marked “Pending Adoption”, either manually or when it is under contract, it will NOT show up in Adopt a Pet.
  4. Photos: All photos MUST be under 1MB. Additionally, Adopt a Pet limits the number of characters that can be in the name of the photo. We suggest ensuring the image name is the name of the animal (IE: fido1.jpg or fluffy-1.png)
