Ah, I had read that Beezie is a brindle but I forgot about it, maybe because I had no idea Scotties came in brindle.

Reminds me of when I was a teenager- we had a German Shepherd (we always had shepherds) that was all black, but she was indeed a full-blooded shepherd, with papers and everything, just like the others we had. Many people didn't know that German Shepherds can be all black or all white, not just brindles. She was the most intelligent dog we ever had, and when you're comparing shepherds, that's saying something.

Yeah, I found a white German Shepherd on a walk. It was sad. He was traumatized and had been dumped, obviously. He wouldn't leave the stands by the football field at the high school. I took him food and water and called a rescue organization. He would be okay with women but growled and barked at men, especially if they were wearing a cap. I was never afraid of him. He was actually an albino--had startling blue eyes. I wanted him, but he would have been hard, and we had a cranky old lab.

By the way, the White German Shepherd people are total snobs...they refuse to take the albinos. Let's just say they are white supremists.

It's funny about how you guys call them Alsatians, Snugs. I understand that came from the war...the understandable aversion to anything "German."

My brother raised German shepherds for a long time, and belonged to Washington Dog Rescue in WA State. I love all dogs, but shepherds are my favorite.

I remember this one time when my brother was living out in the country with his shepherds, and a yappy little fluffball of a dog wandered into their yard. We looked out the window to see one of his shepherds, Banzai, shaking the dog by it's collar like a rag mop. At my brother's command Banzai let go, and the poor little dog waddled as if he was drunk, out of the yard and down the street.
