About the Leonberger
Database online
This original text is copied from www.leonbergerdatabase.com
Some of the fact mentioned have changed, so pls. read
the remarks written in cursiv letters.
History This is the biggest database in the
world containing information about Leonberger dogs from all over the world
on the internet. It has information like name of the dog, the parents,
date of birth, etc.
The original database (datacollection started in 1995) is a project of several people; Uwe Hermann,
Edith Steffen and I, Arthur Muller.
I have adapted this database for use
on the internet (using PHP and a mySQL database, for those that are
interested). Over time more and more information will be added to the
database, like information on health.
Healthdata will NOT BE AVAILABLE online as on the one hand not
enough people submitting data and the datacollector-team is not interested
to create ANY TROUBLE among the people. Healthdata are collected but
remain on the PC's of the datacollectors.
Another project is the collection of data of deceased dogs; based on the
number of 300 Leos the average lifespan is unfortunately very low (7.5 yrs.).
This will not go online either, but is available on request (datacollection
based on ACCESS 2.0, Excel-formsheet).
Please see the formsheet "deceased dogs" - we kindly
ask everybody to provide us with data on deceased Leos but to avoid
problems, this data should be send in by the dog owner(s) only.
The database has basic data of
some 60,000 Leonberger dogs all of which is available through the
web. That's of course a lot of dogs, but many Leonbergers are still
missing. If you can supply us with data that's missing in the database or
would like more information, please contact me (Arthur Muller,
arthur@leonbergerdatabase.com).
You can read more about the
KynoInfo project on Uwe Hermann's homepage. = there is no info in English
anymore; to read about the KynoInfo project pls. go to www.leonberger.150m.com.
Accuracy We have done our best to prevent
it, but it's very likely that the database contains mistakes. Feel free to
let us know if you find any. No rights may be derived from data found in
the database (i.e. use at your own risk). When you go back in
time, the data may be less accurate, because the sources we used are less
accurate. Due to technical reasons, if you submit something it will
take some time for the database to be updated. It takes a lot of work to
get the database on the internet.
Usage Type in a part or all of the name of
the Leonberger you're looking for.
Example: if you're looking for Mighty of Leonberg, you
can type in mighty (upper/lowercase is not important) and
click on the Search! button. Then you'll be presented with a
list of dogs that have the word mighty in their name, you can then
click on the one you were looking for. Tips
- You can search for kennelnames or other parts of a name.
Searching on a part of the name usually gives a better result (because
of difference in spelling).
- You can also use the possibility to search on the kennel
name, picking the kennel name from the list supplied.
- You can use an underscore ( _ ) instead of special
characters, like èêëòä, etc.
- Von / Van de / Vom / van het, etc. are abbreviated to v.
/ v.d. / v.h. etc.
