this post has been edited 1 time(s) I was reading a post and it got me thinking, Admin, how many breeds only have one or two or even zero breeders in the game and what are those breeds? Is there still a "Rare Breed Account" or is it long gone?

PPval - your totals are based on the number of breeders listed on the top part of the breed information page - these dont reflect the true # of 'active' breeders. For instance - Havanese have only ONE active breeder. Its better to look at the 'Breeder directory' link at the bottom right of the breed info page |

this post has been edited 1 time(s) quoteYES, exactly this, I wanted to add it myself but you did it first than me. I really did wished it only counted breeders who are active with more than 5 dogs of the same breed in the kennel. Oh well. I was considered* selling all of my JRT stock, to get on the rare breed bandwagon. I will look into the breeds, and have my pick. I really want to help. * I pulled the plug and did it. ----- Last edited by Pearl City on 1/3/2015 4:45:28 AM |

this post has been edited 1 time(s) quoteYes the breed directory link for some breed may have more breeders listed than the breeders stat, however the first few I checked they were the same except for havanese so to save hours I went with The breeders stat. havanese have 3 listed for breeders, yet the breed directory has 4 breeders listed but as admin hasn't answered and I can't imagin anyone going threw all the breeds and counting how many are on the breed directory list (which will show any one who just owns 1 dog) that's the best list there going to get, it may not be accurate for all breed but will be for most. Doesn't matter how many dogs a player has as long as they have a dog of that breed and there kennel isn't dormant (so doesn't appear on the breeders list) they are a player in that breed. ----- Last edited by PPvallhunds on 1/4/2015 11:01:27 AM |

Alaskan Klee Kais only have 3 active breeders and could certainly use more bloodlines in the breed. |

I am the only active person in Briards that I'm aware of. I think there are only two of us in Black and Tan Coonhounds. |

I'm the only active breeder in Havanese, and it's been tough trying to get dogs to work with, I am stuck breeding source dogs to studs I find by hunting. |

I know if you made a rare breed account back in the day it can still be used for that breed. I signed into one of mine not that long ago. I didn't upgrade though. I chose to upgrade another kennel because due to the lack of participation in those rarer breeds, you can easily manage 2 breeds in one kennel. Although many of my kennels have/had "rare" breeds in them. |

Right now there are only 2 active breeders in Norwegian Elkhounds. And I even managed to get a Fourth In Show at the Feb. World Cup with an Elkhound! Would sure like more players though. |
