TF's Domesticated Dogs
Dogs on Terra Fera aren't actually too vast in breeds, as they are on Earth. Most of TF's domesticated dogs are of Earth origin, with few exceptions(like the Nitm Hutiah above), and came to TF along with their human masters at various times in TF's history. TF lacks pretty much any sort of kennel clubs, dog shows, and the like, as dogs on TF are seen as purely working animals, though some are kept as companions. Because of this, there was never too much of a desire to breed specific dogs, and the breeds pretty much developed naturally.
The above image shows concepts of four types of dogs, three of which are in fact breeds. I'll cover all of them here.
The "Mianmoae Farm Dog" is just a typical example of TF's working dogs. For the most part, they have either the look about them of a collie or GSD type dog, with various appearances in between. Farm dogs have been kept as herders and guardians for livestock owners for thousands of years, and this type of dog is possibly one of the oldest of Earth origin.
The Emperor's Hunting Dog, or also known as the Capareon Hound, was one of the few types of dogs bred specifically, and partially for its looks no less. These dogs come in a variety of patterns, and have a somewhat curly coat, but overall have a build meant for hunting. These hounds were bred specifically for the Capareon Emperor at the time, and were once almost strictly owned by Capareon nobles and royals. They have since spread, and have become a common working dog, valued for their hunting skills.
The Parimoae Terrier(in the case, the shown is the Northern) is the newcomer of TF's dogs. These solid colored little dogs are kept solely as pets, popular among Parimoae and Capareon's upper class.
The Nitm Hutiah, which means "Ice Dog", is an ancient breed, and likely one of the only truly native breeds of dogs on TF. They were bred and kept for pulling sleds, and prized as a loyal companion. Once strictly found in the Far North, they were eventually brought to Niana by explorers. These dogs that were brought back soon caught the eye of Niana's nobles, and more dogs were brought back. They have a very wolf-like appearance and build, which points to an ancient and dark secret about these dogs...
