I'd create a custom field and put the dog's name there.

Hello there, @topdogpettraining.

 

Welcome to the Community space. As mentioned by BRC, you can create a custom field for the dog's name. I'll show you how:

  1. Click Customers.
  2. Choose Customer Center.
  3. Under the Customers & Jobs tab, double-click the customer name.
  4. Go to the Additional Info tab.
  5. Click Define Fields.
  6. Add a field for Dog name.
  7. Click OK.
  8. On the designated field, enter the dog's name.
  9. Click OK to save changes.

What @Kirill - CloudBusiness LLC  wrote was quite good.  No need to re-answer.

I would use Add Job. Customer = Owner. Add Job = Pet Name here. You don't need a Custom Field. You want to track All the pets the owner has now and might have over time.

So completely new to QuickBooks. Thanks for your answer.. i think I like this idea most.. but I do the add job, would this show up on receipts? I'd like to be able to quick look at a receipt or customer info and relate what dogs they have.
