I hope someone is still subscribed to this post. I had another question... I looked up your link, about context dictionary, presumably to modify the value returned by the function, like you said, to add the pets to it. I don't know what to loop or iterate over to get all the pets, first off. I know how to add them, I think, that would just be context[pet id or something] = <pet object instance>. Secondly, I'm assuming this function, get_context_data, goes in the models file. I understand how to retrieve context from the dictionary, you explained that as well as the professor in the course I took on Django, so no problems there (so far).
I think that's it, actually. Thanks in advance, hugely appreciate any help anyone can offer.
