David Lettermanâs Top 10 Reasons on why we should vote NO on the standard changes: 1. Because not one BOD has told us how it will improve the breed 2. Because Zoe, Sam, Morton, Patty, and Pam are running on the slate again and all have stated via FB that they do NOT support changing our standard to change the white GSD from DQ to serious fault. 3. Because It is the responsibility of The GSDCA to orchestrate the development of activities which result in the PRESERVATION, IMPROVEMENT, AND ENHANCEMENT of the German Shepherd Dog" 4. Because ballots have been mailed and there has been ZERO discussion pro/com on why we should change the verbiage on long coats. 5. Because there has been zero discussion pro/con on why a solid black nose will no longer by a DQ. 6. Because blue and liver colors are not deniable and there has been zero discussion pro/con on why we are allowing. 7. Because not ONE breeder of an AKC Champion has come forward and stated they will breed to a white GSD. 8. Because the standard revision has never been shared with the membership by The GSDCA. It has been left up to the mailman when he puts the ballot in your mailbox. 9. Because the 3 White GSD clubs themselves are fighting against each other and donât agree the standard change is a good idea. 10. AND THE NUMBER 1 REASON; The International White GSDCA can continue to offer financial aid to join the GSDCA so they have more votes next time. ============================================================================ POST is Copyrighted 2014.
