When evaluating software costs, factor in your effective tax rate. A $636/year software expense is partially deductible — but Nexa at $279 once is a one-time deduction that eliminates the recurring expense entirely.
Whether you call it invoice management, a app for jobs, or a invoicing system — most dog breeders in Chandler cobble together Acuity Scheduling, Square, Vagaro, Wave and other monthly services. That's $636/year in monthly software fees. Over the next 5 years at today's prices, that stack costs $3,180.
Nexa lets you own your tools. Your CRM, invoice management, calendar tool, jobs, time tracking, and financial tools — wrapped into one app. A single action books a client. A single action generates an invoice. No bouncing between tools. No middleware. No per-connection charges. It's a buy once — cut costs starting today. For dog breeders in Chandler weighing the switch, the 30-day money-back guarantee covers the migration window — you can run Nexa in parallel with your existing subscriptions, verify the workflow handles your real client load, and only cancel the monthly tools once you are confident the data and processes have settled in.
When there's a litter, the litter runs your life. The day, and most of the night, is whelping watch: checking the box, keeping the heat lamp right, and weighing every puppy on a gram scale because a pup that isn't gaining is a pup in trouble, and catching a fader early is the whole game. You feed the dam extra, supplement any pup that's not nursing well, and worm and deworm on schedule. Around that, you're running the business of placement: answering inquiries, vetting buyers with real questions about their home and life, managing a waitlist, and being willing to tell the wrong buyer no. Breeding itself is timing, you're watching a female's cycle and progesterone, because the window doesn't move for your convenience. There's a constant paper trail, vaccinations, deworming dates, health clearances on the parents, microchip numbers, registration papers, and it has to stay straight across the litter and the adults. As pups grow you socialize them, start photos and updates for waiting families, and prep go-home packets. A good breeder is half midnight nurse and half careful gatekeeper, and the part that never lets up is the records and the responsibility for where each dog ends up.
That is the work Nexa is built around: the job, the client, the hours and the invoice live in one place, so the paperwork side of the day doesn't need a second shift.
Every one of those was bought once and earns its keep for years. Nexa is priced the same way: $279 once, and it keeps working whether business is busy or slow.

We build a dog breeder's guide the same way every time, and we'd rather you trust it than take it on faith. Nexa is our product, so the test we hold ourselves to is simple: a tool only "wins" a job here when it genuinely does that job better for a dog breeder — and where something free, open-source, or buy-once does it better, we say so and link you to it. Where Nexa falls short (payroll is the honest example), we name the alternative outright.
Found something out of date? Prices change and we don't catch every move the day it happens. This guide is published and maintained by the Nexa team; if a figure here is wrong, tell us and we'll fix it — getting it right matters more to us than the sale.
