Well, to answer that question fault or no fault we ARE GSD's. We never wanted
to "change" the standard, just to restore it to what it was before it was
eroneously changed. Secondly the GSDCA IS the PARENT club, be parents and
protect us as a parent protects its child. If you knew the "factions" involved,
ALL of them except
"American White Shepherd Association" want to keep the White coated GSD as they
are...GSD's. So as a PARENT club we expect the GSDCA to take our issue
seriously, it is a serious issue. We are not only members but we spend tons of
money in GSD dog sports and events. We represent the breed in public like it or
not, best we should do that with the support of our breed, lest we all look
divided. JMHO. Debbie Britch

Subject: [Norton AntiSpam][ SHOWGSD-L ] Re: White GSD...??
Why would we want this Breed to be split into color or coat Class
Divisions??? This is a working
Breed and our Standard is built around that cause......not colors and coat
textures for appearances
sake in the show ring. HOW will "Class divisions" improve the German
Shepherd Dog and what
it is bred to be??
When the GSD cease to become the strong versitile working Breed....and is
featured & judged by
a color / coat division we will have lost this Breed.
The people involved in the white GSD have three 'factions' that do not agree
on what should be
done with their white GSD. How do you expect our Parent Club and AKC and
even our own
membership that does not agree on this .....to solve their problem?
IF we lose members over this......then it would be because those that would
be members for the
sole purpose of whatever their agenda is .......of the three factions with
the whites.
IF we love this Breed ......WE should ALL be concerned about the membership
in this Parent Club
and quit being so willing to attack our own!!! Particularly over coat
and color!!
The problems with this Breed is not in whether a white can be SHOWN. This
is a GREAT BREED
with the Standard as it is......lets put forth this effort for the truly
serious problems.like puppy
mills, bad dog laws and some health issues..... and stay true to the
Standard we have.
