I am going into law enforcement and was wondering about breeding a black GSD to a white GSD. What will the problems be?
Full Question:
My question is if you mate a black German Shepard ( female ) and a white German Shepard both AKC would there be any negative results? Also Some shows do not allow white shephard's and why?.... In my order to you I also wanted to know if you could give me some advice on how to prepare my 8 week shepard for police/patrol duty as I am in LEO school now and in three years I would like to be a K9 Deputy. Our Department does not have K9s as of now, however as our county grows maybe in three years they would give us a chance...Thanks,
Tom
Ed's Answer:
There is no white GSD anywhere that can even come close to doing police service work. So why would a potential police officer want to screw up a litter of pups by breeding to a white dog. The working ability has been bred right out of the white dogs, in fact it has been bred out of ALL OF THE AMERICAN BLOODLINE DOGS. If you want to start or get into a program you will need to get working bloodlines and there are no working American bloodlines. Read the articles on my web site and go into the archives of my web discussion board and read about these issues.
K9 work is a rewarding part of law enforcement but you need to have the right dog – you would not go out on patrol with a BB gun – the same applies to American bloodline or WORSE white dogs.
