Also, for whatever it's worth, I don't believe Alicia breeds panda shepherds. Some of our mutual friends from AWSA do. But Alicia shows and breeds White shepherds and German shepherds. The page in question on her site merely points out all the different varieties of color and coat patterns and lengths seen in GSDs and shepherd-type dogs. I really fail to see how this could be construed by anyone as "promoting" these things. IMO, the page is there for information and educational purposes only... similar to John Ayotte's wonderful page. Not once are any of the photos labeled "look at this ugly dog" or anything like that. These colors exist. They may not be correct, but that is no reason to crucify anyone for pointing out the fact that they are there. Some of us even find them interesting. And yes... that includes the panda color. Guess that's all I have to say on this subject. I have as thick a skin as anyone but, honestly, the constant negativity displayed toward other dog people in our sport by SOME folks here absolutely sucks! Whatever happened to "encourage, not discourage"?? :/ -- Karen C.
