I, like Evan, have judged the White GSD National, mostly because it was very close to where I lived in upstate NY, several years ago. They had some nice moving dogs. They showed me some of their pedigrees, and some were offspring of black and tan parents of large, nationally known kennels, which I will not name here or anywhere as I wouldn't want to embarrass anyone, if indeed it is an embarrassment. I am sure they will be happy they will be allowed to become a separate breed, as that is what they have wanted for a long time.
