all I can say is WOW, #46 came off the sleeve and got an "a" and went VA1 and the way the poor dog dropped to the ground when told to fuss, soooooooooooooooooooo sad

Wow, thanks so much for taping and posting this! You sir, are a friend to me from here on out! I'll get back to you after I watch them all.

Super, Ravi! I wish that you would upload your videos of the females--even if you did run out of tape.

In order to refresh my memory, I just watched the official DVD of the 2005 USA Sieger Show in Carson City. At the time, I thought some of those performances were truly appalling. However, they look quite polished when compaired to Ravi's videos taken this year.

Thank you for posting the videos.  It was very enlightening.  I really appreciate the effort you put into filming this.

Ravi, Thank you and KUDOS for putting the videos on-line where everyone can view it and see for themselves what a cheapened travesty the "VA" rating has become. A dog had to actually be run to get insuffient...even after do-overs. Louise: am I incorrect, or isn't a dog that comes off the sleeve during the protection supposed to go to the end of the class, as opposed to going to the front as "VA"? I wish someone would explain why the judges selected supposedly led to fewer entries, as it appears that their participation leads to higher ratings.

This is absolutely embarassing to the USCA Organization. Mark should resign and never judge again. These videos should be reviewed and the VAs should be removed on the dogs that clearly failed protection and clearly came OFF the sleeve. These dogs are being advertised as show select and the best to breed to. Personally I would look for a SG with a definite work ethic.

If dogs are being measured at local and regional levels than it should be done at Sieger levels also. Several of these VA dogs appeared to be well above  65cm.

And the SV should look into the amount of VAs given in the USA and stop this nonsense. The USA public is not stupid and has had enough of this marketing mania.I actually am afraid that the SV and the USCA may be collaborating in the demise of the GSD in the USA. The USCA organization does not hold the quality of the dog to the standard and the SV allows their judges to patronize the quality of our dogs to handing out VAs like candy to the biggest spenders.Both organizations need to be accountable for this embarrassing display as captured on video.

It is not surprising that the entry was so low. Any person with an ounce of brain would not throw their money away to this nonsense.

I am a businessman and I see no success in this business profile.

Ditto, Chuck, I thought there were some damned big dogs on those videos. One in particular looked like a small pony !!!

chuckles- I would not go so far as to suggest a collaboration, I doubt that is the case, but as usual, I could count on one hand the number of males I saw that I would breed to after seeing them "work".  You wanna talk corrupt? If we're bringing up performance and size, lets talk about hip ratings that change like magic, too. Any dog person worth their salt can see through the marketing and the BS, but Joe Public who thinks that puppy must be worth its weight in gold because the price tag says 3k eats it up.

And, slightly off topic- am I the only one that cringes when these dogs are screamed at like they've just eaten a baby? That's dog training?
