thank you both, I'm just trying to make sense of a strange event, that
seemed ok on the surface until you started looking at all the facts then it
just didn't make any sense.
To deny a group on the basis of color when all other aspects are equal
reminds me of of the place I grew up, Arkansas in the late 50's. The only
difference I find in the white vs colored is just that, colored, and it's
pretty much an owner handled group.
How on earth could we get the AKC to allow a variety? Would that appease
both sides?
Frankly, if the DQ was removed I do recommend that all the members that
don't approve of the white gsd should not have one, or reward them in the show
ring if they judge gsd's. Just because they wouldn't be a dq doesn't mean
everyone is obligated to embrace them. Let them stand on their own merit
and see what happens.
Although sometimes things, like opinions change over time. Some of mine
have.

Anne, I admire your honesty. I only wish others would do the research
and
get beyond their own preconceived notions.
