Hi Stormy, 
Yes I agree there are potentially multiple items to vote on, however I do not 
believe it is a choice of one or the other. 
 
The following three items are mutually exclusive, they represent a choice of 
the membership for how the whites will exist within the GSD breed and their 
role with the GSDCA.
  1. Leave the STANDARD ALONE
  3. Allow white to become a SERIOUS FAULT
  4.  Remove the DQ of the White Coat.

 
The other item is not related to the other three and a represents a separate 
decision than the other three choices: 
 
 2. Allow SEPARATION for those who prefer the white color 
 
This is in response to the request and petition submitted by AWSA which is 
asking that the GSDCA not object to the AKC establishing the White Shepherd/BBS 
as a separate breed within the Foundation Stock Service program.  Again this 
does not imply endorsement or approval of the separate breed, just that the 
GSDCA does not object.  This would have no impact on those who wish their white 
dogs to remain as part of the GSD breed and subject to the outcome of the 
choice from the first group of options.   There are those with white coated 
dogs who wish for their dogs to remain as part of the GSD breed. Myself and the 
members of AWSA respect their choices and wish them well,  we are not working 
against them as our goal of recognition of a separate breed is an entirely 
different issue. 
Thanks, 
Melanie Fuellgraf

Actually, I guess if it went to a survey/vote to the membership, it should have 
all four choices


> 1. Leave the STANDARD ALONE
> 2. Allow SEPARATION for those who prefer the white color
> 3. Allow white to become a SERIOUS FAULT
4.  Remove the DQ of the White Coat.

That actually would stop all further discussion, wouldn't it?   Those that 
didn't like the results, one way or another, would either just continue on or 
quit. 
If there is going to be a Membership survey, it should have all choices 
available.

I wish the Board would send that out to the membership at least as a formal 
survey.
