I agree, Kathy! I do not want to see pigment in our dogs compromised because
of the breeding practices that would follow the removal of the DQ for white.
The more I read about this, the more the white owners/promoters convince me to
vote NO!!! I hope the breeders who have not been participating in this thread
have been reading all of these posts and thinking about what they might be
seeing in their own whelping boxes in a few years with regard to color and
pattern. Do we really want these changes to our gene pool? So, keep talking,
people! I think you are digging yourselves a big hole in your own backyard!
