Funny how you can answer for so many when you are not a part of them. I know a few white breeder/owners and I haven't heard any of them fighting so hard for the DQ to be removed. Seems "thou protests too much". The Standard means nothing to them???? you say????? Then why are they breeding so close to the GSD standard and are winning in their Venues and even AKC judges will say they are good enough to be a part of the GSDCA? I'm sure you will have an answer. You are fighting hard for breed separation.
