My answer to that where the Panda is concerned as there are no required DNA 
testing
for Parentage and if they are what about the grandparents?  Can another breed 
not
enter to produce this and so answer SPONTANEOUS MUTATION is a good one.

As Jen and Dr's pointed out the problem with breeding Panda's is that not the 
issue
in other breeds?

It would be interesting to hear though how many white pups you have gotten in 
all your
years of breeding?  Personally I do not know of any throughout the years family 
or
friends GSDs had.  So yes it can be omitted through careful breeding of staying
away from white or the faded color dogs that genes carry it and sticking with 
the GSDCA Standard.

 A question that I always wondered about is, can a gene be
 eliminated from  
 the gene pool, or do we continue to mask it, or avoid it.
  
 What made me think of this is the statement that the Panda
 was a  
 SPONTANEOUS MUTATION of a gene. 
 
 It seems to me that every gene that ever existed in our
 lines, is still  
 there. We try to breed away from it, but can we eliminate it
 from the dogs  
 permanently?
  
 Just a thought that makes me wonder what we are doing, other
 than trying to 
  breed away from some traits, not eliminate them.
