Ah those tokens they go so fast... Sigh

And there is so much I want to add.

I find myself in a very "horsey" mood, but here I sit with a long list of other animals I want to add, too. Then I need foundies and I plan to add colors and details, too.

So help me decide here.

Which would you out there, the SBF world, want most;

A new AE horse, a new VR horse, and two new Abundant breeds
OR
four new variations on the Service dogs including (most likely) bomb sniffing dogs, drug sniffing dogs, tracking dogs, and corpse sniffing dogs
OR
three new cats, one Overpop (barn cats), and a couple in the Very Rare type area - one breed of which happens to require four new colors that only they will come in (to begin with anyway and they are breed specific)
OR
about four new types of cattle including bucking stock, Gir (from South America), Genetically Cloned (the Japanese are doing it), the Methane Efficent Cow (we are doing it, I'll link articles if I go for it) and possibly some of the Miniature varieties beginning with miniature Zebu. Most of them VR(ish) with AE for the two lab created breeds.

Because, after all, you will be able to buy foundies of many of these and if you buy foundies, I get more tokens to spend...

EDIT: Huh - I messed up somehow and the cattle didn't make it into the poll. Well, tell me if you want them Wink

One More Question
I don't think I will do them this time BUT there are a number of imported game species who run wild around this area of New Mexico - yes, imported and running wild just to "improve the hunting" In all fairness this was done years ago and for the most part Fish and Game are trying to eradicate them. One of them is the Oryx and I added it as an Antelope in the pasture, but I'd like to perhaps add "Imported Game Species" as a species with the Himalayn Tahr, Ibex, and Barbary Sheep to be in the Desert. When I do that, is anybody other than me going to want any of them?

The cats and cattle interest me. There are already plenty of horses and the service dogs dont interest me much.

The imported game species dont do much for me either, honestly. Just seems like making duplicates.

Okay, the service dogs have pulled way ahead of anything else - especially considering that when I discussed it with my hubby he also voted for the service dogs (his vote carries extra Wink ) I looked and the creator of the species doesn't seem to have been here for well over a year or I would have written her first. With that in mind I also looked up the numbers of police dogs and seeing eye dogs and they are almost gone, too. So I've created:

Drug Detection Dog (Exotic)
Arson Detection Dog (Exotic)
Search and Rescue (Exotic)

Bomb Detection Dog (MWD) (Threatened)

Human Remains Detection Dog (Endangered)

Colors:
Black (Abundant)
Sable (Abundant)
Black and Tan (overpop)
Golden Yellow (Overpop)
Chocolate (Abundant)

I purchased one set each of Police dogs and Seeing Eye dogs as well.

And then - being me - drew some coloring pages (line art) for them.
Rolling Eyes Like you didn't see that coming.

Oh you WANT one? Well - see my posts in contests, creations, and animals for buy/sell/trade.

And thanks everyone for your input. The other animals mentioned will probably be added someday - next time I have money to blow on tokens.

Its MWD - Military Working Dog - according to the U.S. Marines. In the end I went with Military Bomb Detection as the variety name anyway. Very Happy (I found an article today that called them SSD - special search dogs, and another calling them MDD - military detection dogs) - probably depends on which branch of the military they are in.

The proper term for the Kadaver dogs is Human Remains Detection dogs according to the trainers websites, although they are widely known as Cadaver dogs. In the end, I went with Human Remains Detection dogs as whenever I see "Cadaver Dogs" I think of those icky skinless dobermans in those zombie movies. LOL.

I'm for less showing off how smart we think we are and more for just enjoying the game.
