Wanted: Expert dog breed classifier. I'm trying to create a data base application program for my local animal shelter, and need some help classifying the nearly 400 breeds of dogs into groups of breeds which non experts could easily confuse. This way the program will be able to attempt matches of lost and found animals for which the finder's guess at the breed mix was close but not necessarily identical to the guess made by the owner. If such a list does not exist as yet, then this will involve a lot research and hard work. Your time will be well spent, however, because if this program is successful, it will be made available, at a small charge, to animal shelters everywhere. The small charge will be slightly more than $50 to recover the animal shelter's initial investment in the data base program and of course the $50 charged by the authors of the data base program for copying the run time only version of their data base. Thanks for any and all tips Dave Decker Ampex DSD Redwood City Ca. (mush)
