I'd sooner avoid these pink nosed pups out of TWO VA2 showline champions.  http://www.pedigreedatabase.com/german_shepherd_dog/classifieds/160513.html

Come On Guys, lighten up ~~~~~~~~~~ A little touch of white on toes?? Chest ??

Remove them from the gene pool ?? NO way.

Most white spots on toes are either gone or hardly even able to be seen by the time most are ready to go to new homes,

same for pink noses. Yes some dogs do have a white spot on the chest that remains but most of those are hardly even noticable as the hair thickens.

two of my imported pups had white toes -- the female had two next to each other on the same foot -  the male has a few white hairs over one toe on a hind leg.  This does not bother me in the least -- the female "colored over' by the time she was a few months old - and those two toe-nails were a little lighter - not black --
The male pup - while he has the small amount of white -  has a black toe-nail  there.  he has excellent pigment points and extremely dark eyes.  His "tan" parts are practically cinnamon color -  I'm not the least bit concerned about a few white hairs over a toe that will pass.  
If I had puppies with white feet -- like kittens - then i would be distressed - but until I see that - I'm good.    

A white toe gene? seriously?  I think the breed still has bigger problem to worry about than this.
