I know....Michae l tends to be a little technical sometimes. Here is my explanation which is much simplier (I think):
The Wikipedia, BigPawPedia for us, is a dog encyclopedia that will allow anyone to get information about a breed on B.P.O. by simply clicking on the link on the hompage. I have gone through the AKC site and a few others to get the standard for a few basic commonalities that all of our dogs have like color, height, and weight. I have also found information about each breed like their general temperment, where they were originally created, and what they were first used for as a breed. I think that it will be very helpful to people so that they can see what the dogs look like (pics are to come), a description of them, and other pertinent information you may have wondered about. It is helpful because now you can look up a breed and find out about them without having to search the internet. The BigPawPedia also includes information on the breed group so that if you were interested in a certain breed, you would know what group traits the dog has.
Finally, this is the most current and accurate form of a dog encyclopedia because it can be updated as often as possible by as many people as possible. You will have full access (if you want) to add information to this BigPawPedia as it pertains to your specific dog breed. For example, I own a Newf (as you all know) and put information about the Newfs from the AKC website. It lists the height and weight for the dog in general. My dog however, is almost exceeding the wieght limit for the standard so I can edit it to make it a more accurate portrayal of the breed. I know that many of you also have dogs that aren't listed in the AKC guide or whose actual characteristic s are a bit different from what they have stated, so for those with dogs who don't fit into the mold, you can edit the BigPawPedia to make it more "B.P.O. accurate". It is meant to represent the actual dogs we own and not just words according to a standard.
I hope this helped to make it a bit more clear. Let me know if you still need further clarification.
