Because Germany said so. It really is as simple as that. Correct me if I am
wrong but the AKC tends to go with the standard of the breeds origin. Germany
said they were out and we followed suit. I think that is all there is to it. No
reason needed to be given other that they didn't want them included in the
breeding program any more. Horand had either a parent or a grand parent that
was a white. Everyone wants a logical reason for their exclusion and their
simply isn't one. The keepers of the standard said that white was no longer
acceptable and that was that.

Subject: [ SHOWGSD-L ] whites ya or nay?
I have always found this conversation interesting and though I am of no
significant sway either way I thought I would put a penny of thought in.
Who recalls a time when whites were part of the GSD conformation show ring and
any other GSD venue? It seems just one change and they were DQ. How sad when
that happened because no one can give a perfectly good reason for it. You
might say diluting color and you would be wrong or that they were not as
healthy and again you would be wrong. Pleae share any viable reason for the
change that has some truth.
I would think that in our more scientific, truth restored and modern world
those reasons would not play such a huge part but it seems that we have the
same prejudices again.
Wouldn't it be nice if they had a their own variety (since some have such color
issues) in the GSD conformation ring and not be shunned and perhaps we might
then have a more cohesive and united breed.
I don't see it happening but it is a pleasant thought worth a penny or two.
