Default question for people with show experience.

Can sable German Shepherds be shown? If they have everything it takes to show but the coat was sable, would that hold a dog back from being able to be shown?

No. Sable is an acceptable color. The only color that is a DQ is white, and liver and blue dogs are seriously faulted.

Go look at my latest critique thread, that dog is a sable, and he has two points. The 2006 GVx was a Sable

A nice sable makes a very nice show dog.

Livers and blue are disqualified because they do not have "noses that are predomnantly black". Livers have brown noses, blues have blue/gray noses.
