(Evan Replies: ) with again the one liner I wrote with missing all the rest of my message... but will not include the rest no point Evan as you did not address it. So you decided to go off topic of the subject of the GSD but did mention the GSDCA Breed Standard in passing. Evan Wrote: And George Washington was the founder of America, but we don't go along with a lot of his ideas. One of which is we no longer have servants. It went out with the civil war, it was in all the papers. If I met George, I probably would not agree with him about his slaves, and if I met Max, I would not agree with him about his politics and view of the role of Germany at that time. Max and I might agree with his position on Hitler, however. I heard they did not get along. ***** What in the world does George have to do with the GSD Breed as he was not the founder or a breeder? George had NOTHING!!!!! to do with dogs or what happened to them. Hitler did not get along with Max as he removed Max of his power. Hitler did own GSDs but not the own ones Max approved of. They were not of rich color as Blondie was from a line of faded GSD genes. ********* Evan Writes: As to the proposed standard change, there is something for everyone to dislike in there. I can't imagine it passing, but it will be interesting. I know the last proposed changes by the board were passed just because the board proposed it. This could be the same. **** However, you are now overlooking all the new members that arrived for the vote. If the dedicated GSDCA members are still here Ed is right in it will not have a chance in passing. The GSD is the most issue here not whether a person feels they are right and I do believe it has been proven that like movies popularity is not a good thing. So if we lower our GSD Breed Standards we allow ALL PUPPY MILL breeders to surface for profit of selling whatever and calling them a GSD.
