GSDC of Louisiana --- Saturday, February 26, 2005 --- Winners Dog

"This dog is downright exciting. A med-large red sable stallion dog with an iron back and superior head piece and he just broadcasts the impression of power and strength. He has excellent front reach, drive and follow-through, covering the maximum amount of ground with little effort. It is hard to fault this dog anywhere, except perhaps his beautiful long tail which in motion he carries with a hook to the side. This dog is of such superior quality that any judge who would withhold an award because of his tail, in my opinion does a disservice to the breed. Our standard says the hook in the tail is faulty ONLY to the extent that it mars general appearance. Well in my opinion, nothing mars the appearance of this dog, nothing could. In addition, I applaud the integrity of his breeder/owner for not attempting to make him "the perfect dog." Wish there were more like him."
