many of todays malinois are circusdogs and pointmachines , where guarding is actually nothing more than waiting for the ball to drop and transport is a heeling excercise
without real intentions its easyer to score points , last powerhause malinois Ive seen were NVBK dogs who are basically mixed breeds ,(as are the pedigreemalinois)
about helmut reisser , does anyone ever thought of the influence of using the whip in building up dogs had on the course the breed took
many dogs that needet the whip to wake up , would never have been used for breeding if there was no whip used at all
about history , horand was born in late 1800 , belgium ringsport was started in 1913 and for many years dominated by groenendael , dutch KNPV was founded in 1907 and many years dominated by dutch shepherds(with some backgrounds similar as malinois)

Yet the Malinois is the preferred dog now for law enforcement and military, where they are expected to bite people, for real, on a regular basis. How can this be, if they are only point-machine-circus-dogs, as you put it?
The fact of the matter is that the Malinois has been and continues to kick major butt in just about everything they do. I don't see this slowing down anytime soon. Maybe if the breed gets super popular we will see a decline?
Here's an interesting thought: Aren't some malinois better GSDs than some GSDs? That is, pedigree aside, don't they meet the GSD standard BETTER than some GSDs?

however both bloodlines are mixed with other breeds (german shep. , great dane , akita , greyhound , dutch shep, pitbull , you name it)
one of the topbloodlines in pedigreemalis has german shepherds in it very upclose , told to me and shown by the breeder itself , for your further info , workingline pedigrees from dutch shepherds are mostly incorrect as are the workinglinebouvier pedigrees
showlinemalis do have shittycaracters as well , but are very few around , and the rest dont fit the breedstandart if you look with one eye or both eyes closed

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/German_Shepherd_Dog
If my understanding of chronology is correct, 1891 came before 1899 and if you look back at pictures of the original German Shepherds, they look more like the Malinois of not only yesteryear but also of today compared to the Shepherds of today. The basis for your nice mix of breeds comes from your years of DNA testing?
And, being as this thread was started by me under the heading of "2011 FCI World Championship", your posts are not following the original premise so maybe go spout your jealousy somewhere else, the numbers don't lie. It is an IPO competition, open to the majority of the working breeds and this year (as well as previous years) was dominated by the Malinois. I was straining my eyes looking for you and your "non-circus", "real dog" on the podium and I didn't see you,,,,,,which one were you again?
If you really want a history lesson on the origin of the Malinois breed, I suggest you PM Malndobe, she probably knows as much about it's history and bloodlines as anyone here in the States.

Here is the quote:
"The sport/evaluation has been around for more than 100 years however it has been softened somewhat of late but that was more to accommodate the show dogs (no courage test, no attack on handler, no gunfire in the BH) than anything else. "
In regards to gunfire... EVERY SINGLE SHOW REQUIRES GUNFIRE TESTING AFTER AGE 12 MONTHS!
I have heard of these other changes, but am totally against it! My question is, are they taking the courage test and attack on handler out of the Sieger shows too? Totally ridiculous!

................BAHAHAHAHAHAHHAAHAHAHA! Wow!!!! Thanks for the laugh!!
Can we get back to the real discussion please?
You know what - nevermind, I think this discussion has now officially gone into fantasy land. "show dogs are tested all the time". Absurd.

also first workingcompetitions were not by saint hubert , as saint hubert refused to organize workingtrails , the main workingclubs in belgium got out of saint hubert and founded Kennel Club Belge who had the first ringtrails and policecompetitions , and also in KCB lies the basic breeding of the belgium workingbreeds
at later days , as saint hubert recognized their mistake ,and also started to organize workingtrails , many of the great workingdogs were listed under different names and numbers in the different studbooks so they could compete on both saint hubert and KCB
in those years the entries of workingbreeds in both conformation and workingtrails where much bigger in KCB , than in saint hubert
