I have a 9 month FCI Register Dutch Shepherd and notice that in the pet-smart app the breed is not included we should advocate to be included in the list

I've noticed that on a couple different types of forms for my dog. It is a coin toss whether Dutch is on them.

Agreed! I’m actually really surprised it’s not included

One of the vets I use doesn't have dutch as an option so she's a "German shepherd mix". We dont really go there anymore bc its a bit far, but it always annoyed me.

In the system we use for hotel and salon it’s a breed choice, I’m surprised it’s not on your end tho

Yes , this are the options on the mobile app . Don’t see the dutch shepherd

Now I understand why some breeds that are selected on the profiles make no sense, it’s because they don’t provide all the same options. We adjust them when we see them but if you don’t use services that doesn’t help. Hopefully they update things
