Looking for list of available pet breeds for WoD pets

I have an addon that does this for all previous content pets. (I think it's Pet Tracker, but I have several other pet addons, so I might be wrong.)

In the info window of the pet journal, when I click on a pet, it says something like
Rat (S/S)
Available: (list of every possible breed this pet could be)

This helps me to know whether I already have the breed that I want, or if it comes in a breed I'd like better and I should keep hunting.

WoD pets tell me what breed they are, but not all possible breeds they could be.
Tried Battle Pet BreedID - it does not do this, and can't seem to find the info I'm looking for anywhere.

Could anyone here point me to such a list? Could be for an addon that would tell me, or an out of game list for reference, either would be great. I'd really appreciate it!

(Hope this makes sense; had wrist surgery last week and have to type with one hand for now, which puts a new premium on brevity!)

Battle Pet BreedID does do this, but you need to keep installing updates - the information in the addon comes from people actually getting the pets, the addon can't give you info on pets that aren't available yet.

But I just tried it today (new download), and it did not provide "all available breeds" info even for the basic wild pets in Frostfire...?

Is there something additional I should have downloaded or clicked or something, to get it to show up?

If you select a pet from your list on the left, it will show up in the upper right preview window. Hovering over its image will show a list of all possible breeds. See image below for an example.

If this isn't showing up for you, play around with the Battle Pet BreedID options (Interface > Addons tab).

Weird... I wonder if you have another addon conflicting with it?

When I select a pet (let's say Adder) I just have to mouse over its icon in the main window. It pops up a mini window that says: Current Breed: P/B, and then Possible Breeds: B/B, P/S, P/B... and Quint totally beat me to it lol!

ooohhh... no, I see... the addon I have just puts that list under the pet's name in the info pane, so I see it without having to do anything. So I didn't think to mouse over the picture. :? ... /sigh

Thanks you guys.
