The following email was sent to the Horseland Staff when I became curious as to how dog breeds and horse breeds are added to the breed lists of both species at www.horseland.com:

Dear Horseland staff,

I was wondering if it was possible to nominate a dog or horse breed for possible entry into the list of Horseland's breeds. Is it possible? If so, how is a breed chosen? Are there special requirements for the real life breeds that can be met? If you can answer my questions, I thank you - but if it is not possible at the current time, I understand. I can imagine how many emails with questions, complaints, and the like that you must receive daily.

Thank you,
Nosferatu (player #4173110)

Their reply was as follows:

You may send us your suggestions here. If we get enough suggestions we will add the breed.
Thank you for playing.

I had recently bought a small pocket book on dog breeds and was astounded at the number of beautiful AKC breeds that were not included in the HL dog breed list. Seeing Horseland's response above, I decided to act; and the simplest way to get the following breeds put into the breed list, I figured, was to create a petition and have the members that supported these breeds getting into Horseland sign it if they so wished.

The breeds I would like to add to the Horseland breed list are these:

1. King Shepherd - http://www.dogbreedinfo.com/kingshepherd.htm
2. Otterhound - http://www.dogbreedinfo.com/otterhound.htm
3. Japanese Spitz - http://www.dogbreedinfo.com/japanesespitz.htm
4. (Standard/Mittel) German Spitz - http://www.dogbreedinfo.com/g/germanspitzstandard.htm
5. Swedish Lapphund - http://www.petplanet.co.uk/petplanet/breeds/Swedish_Lapphund.htm
6. (Canadian) Eskimo Dog - http://www.canadianeskimodog.com/
7. Tosa Inu - http://www.dogbreedinfo.com/tosa.htm
8. Lowchen - http://www.dogbreedinfo.com/lowchen.htm
9. Polish Lowland Sheepdog - http://www.dogbreedinfo.com/polishlowlandsheepdog.htm
10. Spinoni Italiano - http://www.spinone.com/frBreed.htm

If you support the addition of the aforementioned breeds into the Horseland world, please sign this petition and help to get them on the breed list.
