I have NEVER seen, in person or picture, a PUREBRED albino GSD. I have been in white GSDs since 1971. There are pictures of husky x GSD mixes, who are white, and have a blue eye, or both eyes are blue. Barb Hively - PA DNA. It's what makes a white, a German Shepherd -----Original Message----- From: Linda Bankhead <lindabankhead44@xxxxxxxxx> To: Showlist <showgsd-l@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Wed, Aug 13, 2014 7:33 pm Subject: [ SHOWGSD-L ] a really stupid question (again) I don't care pro or con who answers; I am trying to understand. Everything I have read (history and current) states that Albino GSD's don't exist. I can't locate a picture of one and I have researched extensively. Our new revised standard will have a new DQ "Dogs exhibiting albino characteristics. " So we have a new DQ for something that does not exist, or are there Albino white GSD's?
