Again.........Coats CAN be shown already without a special class.......as can dogs with missing teeth, ring tails, poor feet, light eyes, faulty bites.....etc...... It's not a dirty word......it's just a simple fact? They can ALL be shown in any class they chose already.

I say, IMHO Worth a shot. By the way I would like to see a single breeder on this list that if bred a coat or had a coat related to his/ her lines and did really well at the National , NOT brag ...like that would happen??? Come on. Who amongst us wouldn't be very happy? So if that happens, and folks are dissenting about it, but something from their lines wins...please spare us the brags...can't have it both ways right?
