I like the idea, but It wasnt just GSD thats died, there was GR and other breeds as well.
I know that, and no one is saying JUST GSD's died, or wokred as rescuers. The artist picked ONE breed to be the statue form that everyone would decorate, and for all I know, some artist may have chosen to paint pitbulls, labs, and other breeds on theirs, but they had to choose one to start with. Which means, of course, that some people will choose to feel slighted, but that would have happened no matter what.
