Oh well. You can lead a horse to water but you can't make him drink.
Exactly, trust me Ifeel your pain. You keep claiming they have more drive and more brains, and I said surely they'll be winning in avenues that test drive and brains, as well as temperment and nerve, but you like to skirt that every time it comes up, so we'll just leave it as that, your dogs have never been proven to work. PSD's has meant police service dog forever. In working circles you say PSD, and that's exactly what it means, my gosh do a simple google search and tell me what you get Psychiatric Service dog or Police service dog???

JackFrost, don't you think the lack of the white shepherds in these trails could just as easily be due their human counterparts' prejudice against them as it is due to any supposed defects in the dogs?
It could, but surely if they were producing such drive and temperment and structure and brains, we'd see them much more often in working circles. When good ones come along, they're notpassed over because they are white. We scoop them up as fast as we can. Fact of the matter is, there aren't very many. Mainly what you see is lots of talk and not much show.

FWIW, my dad does has a lot of say in selecting dogs for area law enforcement and he is searching more actively for Belgians or white shepherds.
You could PM me as well, I may know him, but I can't say we get any requests for whites, Belgians yeah because they're cheaper, but not whites. I'd like to know what LEO's are looking for that? Besides the fact that they like the color white.
