Pale German Shepherds

[GermanShepherds]

I just recently heard of the color Pale.
Pale isnt recongized by the AKC just like White and Black shepherds are not recongized.
Hmmmm very wierd, anyone have any more information on this color?

Honey when I register a litter and get back one paper for each pup u can only check the following: blk/tan. blk/red., blk sable/, red sable/, grey sable,/ white,. black
That dop is so faded the AKC will not recoginze it for restistry in my book work? Sorry is it yours SHep? That is why I breed for deep pigment, I flighted two to Tampa,Fl this year deep blk. red pigment on my litters page.
I cannot always predict deep pigment but I follow the rules and buy from W Germany top pups for late breeding so I usually do not have this problem or never have yet. My pups are dark, sweet and great temperment, smart, learn quickly the German way. The faded out looks American sorry but so. Typical of the bad breeding going on in the U.s. that is whY I go to Germany for top stock to use in my Breeding program so people get the best I can give them.

Oh I know its not ACK coloring.lol Its not recongnized like white shepherds and black shepherds. Just wanted some information on the color, wanted to learn more about the rare color.

So this is 'washed out', pale coloring.
What does Liver and Blue Shepherds look like?!

[GermanShepherds]

Ok but Black/Creme is acceptable...so whats the difference between pale and creme?

[RoughCollies]

I think the dog is adorable although kind of weird for a shepherd. I don't know anything about the color, although I have seen one at the pet store once. They are different, but that is not always a bad thing.

[RoughCollies]

What? There are liver and blue shepherds?

[Sir Max II]

OOOOOO I love the way the GSD looks!!! wow

[sheplovr]

AKC does register all whites and all blacks, never heard of blue shepherds. There is a Rare breed registery, but why bother with it? It is for Like the Shilohs, King Shepherds, etc.

Thanks SirMax and RoughCollies. I think Dixie Lee is adorbale as well.
Shes a regular shepherd with a good back, good conformation and structure, sweet disposition, no health defects, the only thing is her "tan" is faded out pale.

Shep you sure they register black and white? I have a G. Shep handbook, 2 of them for that fact, and they said they cannot be registered and are not allowed in the AKC show ring only UKC and im not even sure on that.
