Correct a dog in your pedigree

Fix a mistaken name, parent, or other detail without changing another user’s information.

Your copy stays editable

A dog inside your pedigree is your private record. You can correct it even when its information originally came from a scan or Lineage Lead.

Check the surrounding family

When one scanned name lands in the wrong position, review that dog’s parents and nearby generation before accepting more suggestions. A misplaced dog can make otherwise unrelated research look relevant.

Research remains separate

Editing your private dog does not directly edit a HoundLine research profile. HoundLine only links identities when the available evidence and your deliberate choices support that link.
