I am hurt within myself to read your ---- ah --- statement herein -- "Personally, I'm sick of black and red". YIKES ----------------------------------- Let's get on with some real stuff here my dear Lady. TNX Norma the not normal lover of ALL GSDs forever! If there is a problem, 9 times out of 10 it's not the individual dog in and of him/her self - but mostly the environment with which this neat kid is living ---- OK I WILL LURK A BIT --- ----- Original Message ----- From: "Jackie Short" <marcatoshepherds@xxxxxxxxx> To: <showgsd-l@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Thursday, May 20, 2010 3:13 PM Subject: [ SHOWGSD-L ] Re: AN OBSERVATION OF COLOR DEPTH AND COAT LENGTH Agreed with Paulette. You only see the bi-colors, sables, and blankets in the ring when they need to be Koered, because those are the working line dogs. Personally, I'm sick of black and red. Nothing wrong with a nice black and tan. -- Jackie & Marcato German Shepherds S Konzert vom Drachenberg, RN, CD, CGC "Strauss" Devine's Gunpowder N Lead "Mirada" ============================================================================ POST is Copyrighted 2010.
