I agree with you on all counts, but I will never stop breeding blacks. I
love them as long as they have substance and aren't spindly. I always have a
waiting list for people who want blacks.

The breed has come a long way since solid black Ch. UFO finished (with
handler Lanalee) in the late 70's. Whether people (who own black and tans)
want to admit it or not, in MY experience black GSDs are harder to finish.
Carolyn is right when she says that the cdolor shouldn't matter--but
unfortunately it does. It teaches one humility however--when showing
blacks, my dogs have either won or been at the end of the line. The same
goes with Forest, who is bi-colored. I started out with all-blacks in the
70s--but I must agree with Carolyn--it's the movement, show attitude--NOT
THE COLOR. Some judges just don't like black dogs and/or they don't know
how to look at them. It's a challenge.
