Yes, there are many other breeds that have color faults (I say faults because as the standard is written that is what they are)...They are able to register these color faults with the AKC but are not able to be shown in AKC conformation classes and should not be reproduced (Pets Only)...I know that Boxers for ex. are disqualified from the ring if they have more than 1/3 of white on their body...so yes they are disqualifed...
The standards are written to protect the breeds as they are, not to be toyed with...If we allow allow all of the breeds to be bred willy nilly..Just because there are a few others who like this color combination then we will not be protecting the breeds as they are now...They will no longer exist...that is simple genetics!
