Your Welcome and Yes, I agree.
No pup should be put down because it is born a different color.
But, I would say this practice of destroying the pups by show breeders is done more then the general public knows about, be it off color or to hide a genetic defects.
The name of the game is to protect Ch Dogs and their own reputations in the show world.
Show breeders are very secretive about what pops up in litter boxes or what genetic defects that run in their lines.
If this info gets out, other show breeders do not want anything to do with their lines.
After all show breeders breed to show and sell their dogs mainly to other show breeders.
