I urge all SHOWLINE owners to take alook at this video! - Page 4

Really Preston like i said earlier the cow hocks have become much better as she aged and matures. My dog is certainly not a less than average dog like some of the dogs seen at crufts who actually won! Preston i stated numerous times that i respect you a lot but you coming here and tell me that my dog is a nightmare, i do not appreciate that at all! And Preston if you think that these are cow hcoks, here are some pictures of my girl's hocks. This is how she stands naturally and that is what her locks look like!here is another picture frog legs? I DONT THINK SO!

Well i think my girl is beautiful so do the other peole who have seen her in person. Her hocks are much better than Zamp's hocks as you can see. See how those hocks have improved? Its only because of physical conditioning! Well that judge at crufts is a blinking idiot for saying those over anugalted cow hocked trash are good dogs! Working lines are true german shepherds! I am in the process of learning from a top judge in my country. Hopefully in another 4 years or so, i will open a working dog kennel and I assure you all that I for one will try my best to rid my country of over angulated cow hocked trash!

AND THEN YOU WOKE UP. LIZ

Really Silbersee your the own who called me clueless for expressing my opinion on this thread! So your the one being rude here! I have been to seiger show in Canada and i hardly saw any dog like the ones in seen at crufts! So your the one been rude for calling my clueless in the first place. I have every right to retaliate........so if your idea of a perfect gsd is one that is useless on the working field and only looks good while running around in circles, i must say that you are truly very well informed. Actually your a disgrace to this breed by backing gsds that are severly cow hocked, suffer from many illnesses, have comprised immune system, cannot move because they are soo angualted, suffer from all possible types of allergies, are cowardly, have no drives, its becuase of people like you that is breed has become what it is now! So much for making a big contribution eh? Top dogs like Zamp, Esko, Odin, Ursus why is that most dogs linebred to these dogs suffer from numerous health issues? Ever seen a working line suffer from ailments like these? Therefore as of today I no onger recognize the modern showline as a GSD! Working lines are true gsds! So what if my female wont get a VA! like Zamp? Atleast she'll do exceptionally well on the working field! Woouldnt it break your heart to see your son suffering from eczema, asthema, de formed feet, hip problems, severve allergies? I know that most of us treat our dogs like they are part of our family...WHY LET THEM SUFFER!?!

Liz, LOL... did you think I'd miss a one liner at 7:30 am?

aristian, I'm glad you love your dog so much... it may mean that there's hope for you, tho' I doubt it!

To shout so loudly and slate others when one has so litle knowledge is simply... stupid.

From your numerous 'photos, it seems pretty clear that your bitch has a "forward placed shoulder", this is a pretty serious fault... have your "top judge" take a look... when you've woken up of course!

Funky Munky please explain in detail what you mean by that post. :)

I am aware of her very straigh shoulder. Well it still looks like she has good front reach! Her front leg passes her chin very comfortably.....

A forward placed shoulder is a little different from a steep upper arm... which she also has!!!

Foward placed shoulder is a seriuos fault, i know. Thats doesnt make severe cow hocks and severe angulation any better...

well her front reach is still quite good. Like i said earlier i am aware of her medicore front. Atleast she has a good rear, topline, good head, pigment and very good working capabilities....

Do I have the energy for this?  

aristian, you have been very rude about a Ch show judge based on a very tiny bit of very bias film.  As I said in a previous post, Terry Hannan has bred both show & WT champions and is respected world  wide... because he knows what he's talking about! 

Of course you have a right to your opinion but when you spout utter claptrap, don't expect to get off scot free (there's a wee joke in there) especially when your own dog is so below par!
