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."
Sort of but it is a region in France where the white ones actually came from
Just don't mention the war!
