Warbadger posted:White coats are common with the Samoyed, Polish Lowland Sheepdog, Hungarian Puli, Polish Tatra Sheepdog, and the Old English Sheepdog probably counts too. There's also the pile of livestock guarding dogs with white coats like the Great Pyrenees or Maremma, some breeds in that category are/were used for herding as well. Livestock guardian breeds aren't herding breeds. The vast majority of those dogs you just listed are not "sheepdogs" in the herding sense, but guardian dogs. And from the breed standard of the Old English Sheepdog: Color Any shade of gray, grizzle, blue or blue merle with or without white markings or in reverse. Any shade of brown or fawn to be considered distinctly objectionable and not to be encouraged. I own an actual herding breed, and the standard definitely states that white is not to predominate.

Hang on, did I participate in eugenics because I spayed my Cardigan Welsh Corgi according to contract because her head is predominantly white, against breed standard?
