Oh Sue, so George made a stupid comment about "paying dues" at Del Valley's 
 dinner.  So what? Wasn't there but have been to my share and alcohol was  
involved lol, I am certain.  If you don't like George, don't use  George. 
 
I sure haven't broken the bank showing dogs.  Bring a handler a really  
good one or heck even a decent one and they'll finish it lickety-split. I  
don't have "judges" but I have learned over the years who appreciates what I  
like and who to avoid.  Have learned which judges will "do" for friends and  
look at the wrong end of the leash.  No different than business.
 
But speaking of dues...I guess have paid them.  I studied and watched  and 
then started winning...my 2nd litter produced my first homebred CH and what  
a producer HE was. (First litter was more of a German working  line).  
 
American lines a mess?  Maybe some who have doubled and tripled up on  
certain dogs. No worse than some German lines as you well know and the white  
breeders have their problems too. Do your homework no matter.

Truly,  does anyone really care?  There are a handful of  well heeled people
who consistently win in the breed ring.  They are  supported by their
handler/breeders/ judges.  Unless you can afford to  get on this
"merry-go-round" and spend lots of money "paying your  dues"  you are not
going to win anyway,  so what does it matter  it whites are allowed or long
coats?
The majority of us will go  on selling our puppies as pets, competing in
performance or UKC shows and  the entries at AKC shows will continue to
shrink.  Nothing will  change, and no one will care.
Most of the white breeders have  already proven they are more
conscientious when it comes to health testing  then the regular breeders and
I see quite a few with titles at both ends  ...UKC up front, and AKC behind.
I don't know what they sell their puppies  for, but I imagine they do pretty
well.
As for the  coats,  in time they will follow the white breeders.   They
already have quite a following as far as I can tell.
So, the  rest of us "little people"  will sit back and watch as the people
who  screech the loudest now continue to breed themselves into a corner and
we  count our blessings we aren't dealing with the health issues the  
popular
breeders are dealing with,  As every year that goes by we will  continue to
explain to our puppy people that AKC is the only registry who  DNA's
parentage and that is why we stick with them and we will agree with  them
the AKC show dogs are a mess.  Meanwhile, the german breeders  will continue
to draw crowds to their venues and get more money for their  puppies.  I
guess when you look at things this way,  the  handwriting is on the  
wall....
