I didn't mean with <defaultField> that it was the way to define the default field it in the schema, only a generic way to say "default field name".
The default field name, seems to be "text" in your case. If the search query doesn't say on which field to search, the word will be searched in that field. in the query AnimalName:German Shepard you are saying: "search the word "German" in the field "AnimalName" and the word "Shepard" in the default field" I think that that the search you want to do is AnimalName:German AND AnimalName:Shepard I don't know if there is a way to say to solr to search on all fields. you may be copying the content of other fields to the "text" field. See if there is something like <copyField source="*" dest="text"/> in the schema file.
