Parameters

• name: Name of the breed (or landrace, crossbreed, hybrid, etc.). Should agree with article title (aside from any parenthetical disambiguation).

• image: The name of the image.

• Check Commons for appropriate photos.
• There is also image2 with corresponding parameters.

• image_alt: Alternate text to describe an image to those that cannot see it.

• If an image is included, alt text should be provided using image_alt. Alt text should not repeat the caption; instead, it should describe the image to someone who can't see it (see WP:ALT).

• image_caption: A caption that describes the image.

• altname: Other names by which the breed is known by English speakers.

• nickname: Common nicknames.

• stock: List of foundation stock, breeds, landraces, or other populations from which the breed was developed.

• country: Country of origin, preferably at time of origin to avoid squabbling over current political boundaries.

Traits

• weight: The general weight range
• maleweight: The weight range of males
• femaleweight: The weight range of females
• height: The general height range
• maleheight: The height range of males
• femaleheight: The height range of females
• coat: The coat type
• colour or color: Use one only not both. The color/colour as per Wikipedia:Manual of Style#National varieties of English.
• litter_size: The range in size of a litter
• life_span: The range in life span in years

Kennel club standards

• kc_name: The name of the national kennel club of the breed’s country of origin

• Link to a article if it exists then pipe the club’s acronym
• There is also a kc2_name and kc3_name if more than one country claims the breed.

• kc_std: The URL to the breed standard from that kennel club(s).
• fcistd: If the breed is recognised by the FCI, add the URL to the FCI breed standard.
• notes: Free-form concise comments, usually about the breed recognition or standards.
• notrecognised=yes or notrecognized=yes: Shows a "Not recognis(z)ed by any major kennel club.
• extinct=yes: Shows an "Extinct" message. This parameter should be removed if not used.

Special parameter

• trinomial=: Replaces domestic dog with custom text. Italics and wikilinks must be done manually in the supplied parameter value. Entirely wild populations like the Australian dingo, use {{Taxobox}}, not {{Infobox dog breed}}. This parameter should not be used with |x=. If in the future we need to indicate a dingo-and-something-else hybrid that is actually treated as a dog breed, we can use |trinomial= for this, or change the template.

Microformat

This template emits a "species" (or "biota") microformat.

The microformat is created by the use of class="biota", and classes for individual taxonomic ranks, such as class="domain" in a span around {{{domain}}} (full list). Please do not change or remove those classes other than as part of development of the microformat. For background information, see microformats on Wikipedia and the microformat specification.
