I recently came from another pet sim where checking bloodlines before breeding was already built into the system and you could take a look before getting the "too closely related" warning. Is there any easy way to do that—say with an external site, since I haven't seen anything internally—or do I have to go to the painstaking labor of mapping out five generations before I ask a fellow player if they'll lend one of their wolves for breeding?

@WitchyWriter There is a site function for this. Go to the demo underneath the 3 bar menu, put in your wolves' IDs into the entry bar, then hit the "save current" button below that to save a copy of each wolf, and hit the "preview" button to see bloodline compatibility and potential colorings.

However, many people (mostly those on non-apple devices) have still been having issues where it doesn't accurately tell you if they're related or not. As someone on iphone, I don't have this problem and my puppy predictor works accurately. This does NOT mean it will work for you, too. But the option is there.

I want to point out that if you save a wolf as a custom, through changing a color or gender somewhere, it will not work. Customs cannot be previewed, you can only preview existing wolves by their ID.

I've done the painstaking labor of mapping out bloodlines. It's really difficult and I try to avoid it if I can. If you'd like, I can check two wolves' compatibility for you, since the puppy predictor is accurate on my device. If not, no worries.

@foxriddles I'm chuckling that you answered this, because it's one of your wolves I was looking at for studding! Fate, for sure!

I had no idea how to use that puppy predictor, so thank you for answering that, too.

I presume if your Magnificent and my Sneaky were too close to breed, there would've been an alert? In which case we can take this to PMs to talk about studding fee. :)
