You bring up a good point. I too was under the impression that white shepherds were not recognized by AKC because white shepherd are produced from a gene mutation. White coloring is a recessive gene and to get a litter of all white puppies require both parents to have the recessive gene. Maybe they breed them to AKC standards but the owners are of the understanding that they cannot be registered. I could be incorrect as I am not into breeding.
