List of Breed abbreviations

Those links don't have a list of JUST breed abbreviations, so I understand the OPs point in asking this question. At times, I too have found that I want to know which breed an abbreviation is referring to in a thread and have thought that it would be nice to be able to pull up a list of breed abbreviations only. (Perhaps a compliation of breed abbreviations on this thread will result in a link on the FAQs page some day!)
