1. The Puli is NOT the *only* AKC Herding Group breed to
have white coat color as allowable.
2. The idea that sheep or other stock do not respect a
white working dog has been largely proven to be a myth.
Stock are moved by the energy ("presence"), dominance
and pure intent of the dog and NOT by its color.
3. Personally, I would like to see a new White Shepherd or
BBS breed placed into the Herding Group, but the Working
or even the Non-sporting Groups would be equally as
acceptable. It doesn't bother me a bit exactly *where*
they would be placed. Just that they are.
