Thanks for the tips, I did know about the get_object_or_404 and had
that there originally but I wanted to rule things out and was hoping
if the pet_id didn't exist, that would throw an error I'm used to
seeing. Unfortunately that seems to not be the problem. I did make the
changes regarding the Media.views field but that didn't seem to make
any difference but does clean the code up a bit. Thanks for your help.
>From the error it looks like a related field doesn't exist but I can't
tell what field it's complaining about. Usually the error messages are
helpful, this time, not so much.
