In my 2 girls, the working line Dog (Greta) shows much more drive and protection skills. As far as obedience they are pretty much the same. My "American" German shepherd is more of the pet pretty type of dog. I love them both equally. So I do not prefer one to the other. But I got Greta as a rescue dog. I have not had her since she was a puppy and with that being said what a long way she has come. I can see why there are a vast number of people who say the "working" German Shepherd Dog is a better dog. My "American" GSD doesn’t have the same drive or stamina as Greta. I paid over $1300 for Simba and got Greta for a small donation WHAT a DIFFERENCE IN THE 2 DOGS!!! They are also built different. Greta is stockier built for work. If I had to do it all over again I would have purchased a dog from ED.

Thanks Deanna,I guess it just looks huge to me because I've never seen it on a sable before and according to you it has absolutely no bearing on anything else right?
It all comes down to what you want. I would be more concerned in asking them WHY they picked this male to breed to this female than the white hairs on his chest. There are plenty of pups out there, and you can find dogs minus the white if you want to, but even then, the pups could possibly be born with a bit of white.
So far as the pups go, they could all come out with no white. Only way they will know for sure is when the hit the ground.
I think it looks cute (just visit Deanna's page and you will know what I mean). Doesn't affect anything other than the color of a few hairs. I certainly wouldn't pick a dog FOR a chest spot, but everything else is never equal so pick the best dog for you then look at the color you end up with <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" /> .

What's the problem with a small white spot on the chest. :rolleyes: My female Fanni, daughter out of Scott v.Haus Antverpa (IPO x 34) <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/laugh.gif" alt="" /> who has this small white spot. Fanni is a bi-color bitch no white spot. There's a good chance if bred she will have pups with this small white spot. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/cool.gif" alt="" />
I have a friend who has a female pup out of Vyck Von Haus Antverpa SchH 3, IPO 3, FH2
CDX, TD, KKL1A who is Bi-color. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/laugh.gif" alt="" /> This pup is sable with a small white spot.
So I wouldn't be to concerned if your dog turns out as good as these two males have. White spot or not. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" />
My girl had her litter last night. Seven, mostly sable, all with small white chest spots and white tows. Both she and the sire are excellent, high drive dogs. The white spots help me tell them apart. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />
