I asked the question "why aren't White Shepherds allowed to be shown" to a 
couple GSDCA board members. The answer was that the AKC doesn't recognize them 
because they don't meet the standard.  A German Shepherd should be able to 
protect a flock at night and the white would not give it the camofage it 
requires.  They also made the point that it isn't the GSDCA that is keeping 
them out but the AKC by not recognizing them as meeting the standard.

This maybe a bunch of hog wash but that is what they responded to me in 2005.
