Anyone breeding white now knew when the started their breeding program that 
they were breeding dogs that are considered a disqualifying fault. If they 
choose to do so that is their right but after 45 years of being a DQ why should 
the GSDCA alter the standard to accommodate what they choose to breed. What 
throws me for a loop is I believe that most of the people on that committee 
headed by Bart Bartly  are AKC judges I think they are suppose to judge the GSD 
according to the standard.  They are to uphold the standard not try to change 
it to  accommodate    any special interest group. Maybe we should start a new 
class for dogs with missing teeth, we seem to be having a bunch of those 
lately. Or maybe the Strong in heart but soft in ears class

The standard is the blue print for the breed the club members voted 45 years 
ago on this issue. It will take a 2/3rds vote to change it. Vote!
