Carolyn,
This is how I remember it, so glad you were able to document it.....when my
parents were breeding in the late fifties and early sixties....(and my dad
was on the GSDC of America parent club Board back then), I was teenage child
but very 'into' discussions and information around me. ..
.My memory was that Mr. Brackett had whites appearing in his litters from
the genetic backgrounds of the dogs he bred, but was not in favor of the
white being an approved part of the Standard.
Thank you for clarifying.
Janis Calkins

Hi Evan;
Chiminey Sweep ...was a Bi-Color. His Dam...Nyx of Longworth was not a
white dog...she was a faded black and tan.
Lloyd Bracket had whites resulting in his breeding program for a while. At
the time of the Standard revision he was definitely FOR disqualification of
whites.
Mr. Brackett was a member of the Revision Committee.
Mr. Lloyd Brackett wrote an article in 1961 in Dog World Magazine
titled: 'The Case Against the White German Shepherd.'
His opinion is very clear! At one point he writes:
".....while I by no means approved of everything which was included in the
revision, and in particular, of the often weird evaluation of faults in the
supplement, I did, and do, wholeheartedly approve of the disqualification of
the so-called whites."
Lloyd Brackett finishes the article with the sentence:
"I can do no better than to second the motion made by William Olliff
in his April DOG WORLD article: "Please leave Shepherds alone and
stick to another breed where the normal color is white".

Perhaps we need to bring back in the Whites as Bracket did. After all,
they were a major part in his breeding program. A good example is Chimney
Sweep.
The past is often good to recognize, but I think Lloyd would reconsider with
the quality of the dogs we have today.
Take your best bitch and realize her shortcomings. Then find the best male,
and consider what his background and problems are.
When you have done that, breed the best you can to the best you can find.
That is "Evan's Rule" and it should work for you.
Another great rule, and the one I always use is, "Ask Tedi".
You can't go wrong with that. Not that there is anything wrong with that.
Evan

been done and proven, you don't need to keep attempting to create the
theory, you just need to employ it, Einstein already did the hard work!
