Is there an online poster-type photo gallery of dog breeds
Hello all, I am new to learning the different breeds of dogs and have tried to find an online photo gallery of dog photos so that I can learn them. I only found one listed from this group in Google searching, but that was five years ago and the site is defunct. Is there such a gallery? Thanks for any help with this. Roy Gardner |

try the American Kennel Club for a complete
listing of recognized breeds that they have google for AKC & Dogs to find them...... or "American Kennel Club" "Roy Gardner" wrote in message ...

Roy Gardner said in rec.pets.dogs.breeds:
Is there such a gallery? I've never found one particular gallery. Reputable registry web sites are the best way to go. Here are the sites I look at for pictures (the first sucks - they've been in a redesign phase forever): http://www.ckc.ca/ http://www.akc.org/ http://www.ukcdogs.com/ http://www.ankc.aust.com/ http://www.the-kennel-club.org.uk/ I've lost the rare breed dogs registry page, but IIRC it's a good one. -- --Matt.

Roy Gardner I often go to www.dogbreedinfo.com/abc.htm. It's not a gallery per se, but they do have OK photos as well as descriptions of the various breeds. Rox |

For what it's worth, Roy, take what you find at this site with a grain of salt. Some of the "breeds" described are not breeds, but fashionable mutts. They list the puppy-mill registry, the "Continental Kennel Club" as the "CKC", giving it a varnish of respectability due instead to the Canadian Kennel Club. They appear to exist as a front end for classified pups-for-bucks ads, and the breed descriptions are also sometimes suspect. I'd stick with the established kennel club and breed club sites, a good paper (paper!) encyclopaedia of dog breeds, and as many trips to dog shows as you can afford. Go see 'em in the flesh. -- Kate and Storm the FCR arfenarf at hotmail dot com |

Here are the sites I look at for pictures (the first sucks - they've been in a redesign phase forever): No kidding about the CKC site. I really wish the club would quit with the infighting and start doing a better job of serving the dog community. http://www.ckc.ca/ http://www.akc.org/ It is my humble opinion that the FCR at the AKC site has a sloping topline and looks vaguely like a geek. :-) http://www.ukcdogs.com/ http://www.ankc.aust.com/ http://www.the-kennel-club.org.uk/ I've lost the rare breed dogs registry page, but IIRC it's a good one. There is no better way to learn about different dogs than to put your hands on them. I spent the weekend at a hunt test [1] and stayed at Storm's breeder's home for two nights. Four+ years in this breed, and I'm still such a rank novice... but S. had me go over every dog in her place, and then talked me through the dogs we saw at the hunt test. I'm still a rank novice, but I have a better eye for *one* kennel's range of dogs. -- Kate and Storm the FCR arfenarf at hotmail dot com [1] ...and we had two back-to-back Senior Hunter passes... |
