White Boxer

What color is it?

Translated from the Italian original.

Yes, because that is what you would ask yourself in place of Stefano Bartolini, who received the 20th two pedigree of boxers born in his own breeding to say the least surprising.

But let's go with order. Who owns a playbook or tiger receives a pedigree with these specifications:
RACE: (FUL)
FULVO
or
RACE: BOXER TRIGRATE
MANELLO: TIGRATO

At this point we could already object, that the breed is properly a boxer and the mantle is a lava or a tiger. It does not happen that the boxer and the tiger boxer are two different breeds. However, until now we still remain within the aristotelian principle of non contradiction: in other words, the description: the fouler, a lava mantle (or a tiger boxer, a tiger mantle) seems a little rejoicing, but quite logical.

Things get complicated when - as Stefano Bartolini did for his baby Charley - the Enci emits a pedigree with these specifications:
RACE: BOXER TIGRATION
B16CO
Or for her baby Chanel - Charley's sister -
RACE: BOXER TIGRATION
- You're a jerk.

Now, we knew that the colours in the boxer breed are four (transfiguring the black): Fulvo, tiger, sliced, white. How then can the same subject be tiger and yet also white or tiger and at the same time also sliced? We would also like to argue that a cocker is orange and at the same time black and a maybe white, but also brown?.

But the 3/4 does not end here. In fact, the pedigree of Charley of Casa Bartolini (white, see Annex 1), also has a statement: NOT AMMESSED TO THE RIPRODUCTION, while that of Chanel (pezzata, see Annex 2) contains no restriction to reproduction.

Since the ban on reproduction issued at the expense of white boxers was mostly justified by a confused and erroneous reference to the standard, do we ask ourselves and ask ourselves on what bases the piece is allowed to reproduce and white not, being the colors equally out of standard (since 1925 the white and since 1933 the piece)?

In the light of all this incredibly confusing situation, it seems obvious that the certificates of genealogy are not drawn up with the necessary competence, attention and knowledge of the race. This confirms us in our conviction that Enci is very difficult to invoke to itself a task as critical as to choose the subjects suitable for reproduction, if it shows so clearly its shortcomings in the simple correct description of the colouration of the mantle.

Therefore, we expect that as soon as possible all pedigree of boxer-bred dogs will be issued without any limitation to reproduction, regardless of color. The purpose of a genealogical certificate is in fact to certify the genealogy of the dog and not to provide instructions to the breed selectors on which subjects to use in breeding.

It is therefore clear that both Chanel's sons and Charley's sons should be attributed their own pedigree, which, through genealogy, proves their unequivocal belonging to the pure boxer race.
