😂😂💀 Seriously tho !!!!

What's odd about it? White colored GSDs are not suitable for military applications, and farmers don't prefer white shepherd dogs of any breed in general because it's hard to differentiate them from the sheep at distance.

@@soapmaker2263 You dont get jokes do you? Must be fun to be around you! /s

I guess he was just taken aback at the beatiful sight of two white dogs and a girl in the middle - that's not something you see every day... As Chris Rea sang back in the day: 'And the perverted fear of violence, chokes the smile on every face'🎶

My baby talks all the time 😂

Aw Ellen and I say Thankyou xxx we are in Italy right now 💕

@@Animal-Watch Say hello from me!

How cool you had a feauture on this channel Sylvia. I was looking for some footage about our beloved Swiss white Shepard dog, and here you are with Rasta in the beautifull Lauterbrunnen valley. You did great, and a good explanation about the type of dog it is. He completely ignored her at first, but she got a little lick's to her face when he decided it was ok, and got bored after sitting still too long. .🙂

where can I get o e at

@@magicman124 search for a local breeder and make sure the breeder is reputable as well. She got Desdemona ( her Swiss shepherds name ) in Toronto when she lived there but they should have breeders in the states too.

@@MrMementoMori ok i have Western and Eastern german shepherd

When u go WSS u never go back

​@@roybarmo7379 they seem wonderful. Cant decide if I want WSS or rottweiler

❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

I own 8 White Swiss Shepard’s. They differ in character some are friendly other are over protective. They do live as a pack the mother is the Alpha among them . She is an excellent hunter and very protective over her pack. If one of them leaves they all howls like wolves. They prefer raw food however they can eat dry food too . They are vigilant and active

I absolutely agree. They really are unmatched with beautiful souls.

@TheInvisibleManno such thing as emotional intelligence then explain why does the dog sit next to you when you are upset ? Why does the dog instantly guards you when you are nervous ? Why does he greet you when you return ? Why does he have separation anxiety?

@TheInvisibleMan the dog isn’t talented nor trained as a dancer. My dogs aren’t I leave them to nature yet God created something in them that makes them intelligent and emotional. They bond to me .

The German's have got the German Shepherd correct, Dogs with dead straight backs are from the 1960s the breed has evolved.

@@grantcarncross5380 Showline GSD's are prized for their sloping backs, working lines are smaller and have a straight back. I'm confused about the evolution you are referring to. Show lines were purposely bred with that awful and extremely unnatural sloping back which I personally think looks terrible. as @Anna Starseed pointed out nobody gave two hoots about the whities cause they were not recognized as a breed standard so no modifications or selective breeding occurred and we still have a beautiful straight so I am trying to figure out if the breed is evolving or devolving in the hands of the so call 'Masters and Judges" of the show ring world.

@@KibatheMalinois well at the end of the day, it sounds like you are a fan of the American GSD a show pony, not capable of working, just for looks only. Do you honestly think the Germans don't know what they are doing? I believe they do. If you read the breed standard, by all means beautiful, the white German Shepherd or Swiss Shepherd, is actually an outcast. As the breed standard does not allow this colour.

@@grantcarncross5380 Dude read my reply, a simple Google search will explain the difference between showline and working line German Shepherds. Both the American and German showline have sloping backs. Working line are the dogs used for police, military, security etc. They are in the league if Dutch shepherd and Belgian Malinois. Your comment shows that you have no real knowledge of German Shepherds. I suggest doing your research before being a keyboard warrior

@@KibatheMalinois go back to your cave, been breeding for over 20 years, stick with your show pony's, you know nothing about why the breed was established in the first place.

They have the same founder dogs and are the same breed, evolving in different directions. The show gsd differs a lot from the working line gsd as well. The white shepherd is not Swiss nor Canadian, but German. The grandfather of Horand von Grafrath, first registered gsd, was white. Because of the line breeding and the recessive colour, white dogs always popped up as a throwback.

There are many straight-back German Shepherds in the working lines. I have 2 all black ones who have straight backs.

@@marilinpuig8562 yes, working lines need proper biomechanics. But that’s not what wins in GSD conformation shows, which is the point I’m trying to make. The conformation show standard for GSD and Berger Blanc Suisse/White Swiss Shepherd, is entirely different. The WSS preserved those proper biomechanics. I am at a loss as to the contortions GSD show breeders go to in order to justify their dogs staggering around and failing hips.

In the early 1970’s my family owned 2 huge white German Shepards who had pedigrees incredibly long. The first one had a little brown on the back of his front legs.Looks like this dog except a bit larger. Don’t see why they changed the name to Swiss. This was 40 years ago .

@@ralfdawg please allow me to explain. Von Stephanitz created the German Shepherd breed to preserve the dwindling local Thuringian shepherd dogs. Among those rural dogs, the white coat color was often found, being favored by shepherds as less alarming to sheep. He standardized the type and created the GSD breed registry. Tragically, the Nazis came to power, and took over the GSD registry, to create war dogs. They deemed the white coat color inferior because it is easily seen at night, and out of the mistaken belief that they were albino. The dogs actually have a lot of black skin pigment, especially around the eyes and jet black nose, and are not albino. Nor is the white color associated with deafness. It’s the piebald gene, like the Dalmatian, and the Merle gene, like the Australian shepherd, which is associated with deafness. The recessive white color in the GSD is actually a dilution gene for fawn, which is why the dogs will look like a pale warm white against the stark white color of snow. This mistaken belief that the white coat was genetically inferior led the Nazis to determine it as a disqualifying fault. Even after the Nazis were defeated, this rule remains today in the GSD breed registry. The white color cannot be shown in conformation classes, though it can be shown in sports. The GSD registry refuses to budge on this. For decades, white puppies were killed, out of the belief among breeders that a white puppy meant the line was inferior. The white color was eventually eradicated in Europe, but aficionados in the US and Canada kept the white color alive. The gene is recessive, so could pop up in a colored litter. Decades ago, a Swiss woman became fed up with the bigotry against the beautiful white dog. She sought to restore the white color, and the breed before it ever became a war dog. She imported white dogs that met her conformation and temperament standards, and developed a separate breed. It starkly diverged from the GSD breed standard as we know it today. She registered the new breed, Berger Blanc Suisse, with the FCI. The name translates to White Swiss Shepherd. The GSD breed standard that wins in the show ring, with the extreme angulation, and staggering gait, is a disqualifying fault in the White Swiss Shepherd, Berger Blanc Suisse show. Most WSS are long hair, but there are also what are referred to as medium hair in the FCI standard, which is akin to a plush stock coat in GSS. So, why is it a Swiss breed rather than American? Because of the GSD breed registry’s control over the board of the AKC. The American GSD breed registry refuses to allow the white coat color to be shown. It also declared that, even though the conformation standard is completely different, that the WSS is just a white GSD. Therefore, it also blocks the WSS from getting accepted by the AKC as a new breed. It’s claim that since it descended from GSD, it’s just a GSD is spurious. Not only is the conformation standard different, but there are also other breeds which developed from the one base breed or base mix of breeds. For example, the GSD itself was developed from one single source of dogs, the Thuringian shepherds. It was not mixed with anything else, only bred in order to fix a specific conformation and temperament standard. The original Thuringian shepherd had a very sharp temperament, which Von Stephanitz made more tractable through breeding. White Swiss Shepherd breeders do not want to be absorbed into the GSD breed, because if so, they’d have to breed raked, staggering, unhealthy dogs in order to win in conformation shows. The WSS looks like a white wolf, who wants to be with you and your family all the time. If the GSD breed registry hadn’t been determined to continue oppressing the white shepherd, then Americans would have registered the breed first as an American breed. Instead, the AKC prevented this, and it was the Swiss, and other breeders in Europe, who succeeded in forming a registered new breed. This, then, is why the breed is called Swiss. A white GSD will have the conformation of a GSD. If it came from a show line, it will have a steeply sloped back. The nose is usually not pure black. A WSS will have a pedigree going back generations, all of the parents of which had that natural flat back. The extreme angulation never infected WSS breeders, so those unhealthy genetics aren’t in that pedigree. It’s not a fault that the breeder had to spend generations trying to fix, which who knows what genetic deficiency lurking. The hyena back was never there in those lines. Europeans favored good biomechanics.

Yay😊

Thankyou 🙏

🙏❤️

Thank you very much! He is my favorite too😅

Looks like one of the most beautiful places on earth, and those dogs are smarter than most people.

Thx.for the pin

❤❤

Talk about a perfect mix!

@TheInvisibleMan I agree, but I don't know how else to describe a dog's feel for his/her owner's emotions.

@TheInvisibleMan not quite. Like I said , I could be in one room and something would make me get emotional, and my dog would walk in from the other room to see what was going on. Maybe empathetic genius? hard to describe.

@TheInvisibleMan sure.

I have a WSS and lab mix at home 😅. He really is the perfect doggo 🥰

Well those Outstanding DOGS (all of them) sure do have me have me SMILING⚠️🐾❤🐾

Thankyou 🙌💥
