PawBook v6.0.0 – Multi-Pet Hub
PawBook v6.0.0 – Multi-Pet Hub
PawBook 6.0 introduces a true multi-pet experience for households with more than one dog.
PawBook Family
When multiple pets are configured, PawBook now shows a family dashboard before the selected pet record.
Each pet card includes:
- photo;
- name and breed;
- current weight;
- next vaccination;
- number of current reminders.
Selecting a pet immediately opens that pet's individual PawBook record.
Family reminders
PawBook now aggregates automatic reminders across all pets.
The Family Hub shows the most important reminders together while always identifying the pet they belong to. Selecting a reminder switches to the correct pet and opens the relevant section.
Shared health agenda
Upcoming health events from every configured pet are combined into one family agenda.
This includes:
- vaccination recalls;
- treatment start/end events;
- estimated heat-cycle events.
Selecting an event opens the calendar for the correct pet.
Data separation
PawBook 6.0 does not merge pet records.
Each animal continues to use its own Home Assistant config entry and keeps separate:
- profile;
- health records;
- vaccinations;
- visits;
- treatments;
- weight;
- heat cycles;
- ENCI data;
- genealogy;
- attachments;
- backups.
The Multi-Pet Hub only aggregates the information needed for the family overview.
Compatibility
All PawBook 5.0 features remain available for every individual pet.
