Hi all. Sorry I’ve been AFK for quite a while on this website. I have really been concentrating on a new online event entry software. It’s pretty much done now, and I hope to use it for trials this year before I release it to let everyone use it. The website is: Entry Paws Since…

New Software New Application
I have decided on a software environment for the new application. I am using Quasar, which is based on Vue and uses Javascript. I really like it so far. My first application will focus on secretarial software for AKC Scent Work trials. I would like to expand this single software to be able to handle…
Looking at New Software
Currently the Barn Hunt Secretarial Software is written in FileMaker. FileMaker has so many limitations and it so quirky, there are a lot of things about it that I don’t like. So I have been spending the last couple of months looking for an alternative. So far the top contender on my list is using…
Secretarial Services and Trials
I’ve been working on some new trials lately. On this website we now have Ninja Forms, so are accepting more online entries. Paw Tap has been working with other clubs in the Salt Lake City, Utah, area, and we are now putting on AKC Scent Work Trials as well as AKC Farm Dog Certifications and…
New Version will be 2.+
For the new version of the Barn Hunt software, each Run in the database will have associated Fees. I’m adding the following fields to the Run Table to incorporate these: Run Fee Fee Owed Fee Paid Voucher Amount Comp Run I’m going to be rolling out a version with these changes to the testers today….
Looking at the Payment System
I’ve been able to finally sit down and look at modifying the payment system for entry fees. This will be a big update and will take me a while to work on it. And, since I have a new puppy now who is taking a lot of my time, I’m not able to focus on…

I added a number of useful links to the side bar of this website. I actually refer to these links quite a bit myself! Here is an image of these links (the links may change over time) so you can see what to look for. They are in the right sidebar. There is a lot…
Version 1.5.21 Has Been Released
Just finished sending out all the upgrade links for version 1.5.21 to the current users. I also put up the new version for sale on the website. My testers have already found some issues with the Smart Running Order. So for those of you who are confused, I recommend using the old running order and…
Smart Running Order is Smarter than Me
I’m still working on the Smart Running Order. I knew this would be a tricky, complicated bit of code, and now, of course, it’s expanding into having to modify other parts of the software to get it all to work. I’m making it so that it separates dogs into different blinds based on Handler, not…
February 2019 Already!
Wow, where does the time go? I just don’t know. I have to apologize that I haven’t had much time to spend on the Barn Hunt software since December. We just got a huge snow storm here in Utah, so I am hoping to be able to dedicate some good snow time on it this…
