Tip - Some list values in Shelter Pro cannot be altered in any way. Protecting certain values is necessary because if they were to be altered, basic functionality within Shelter Pro would be jeopardized. A simple example of this is the species value of DOG. If you attempt to change the protected value, you will see a message stating:
Important: this value is reserved, it cannot be deleted or replaced.
