i think it's disgusting that anyone could breed the show dog's like this it look's deformed the straight back working type look alot more attractive than these dog's they look like their crippled why would any body want a dog that look's that way ! i have a straight back GSD from working lines i would never buy a GSD from show lines to me their not what a GSD should be or look like ! their destroying the GSD breed !

Poor dogs :(

Why don't these breeders want their dogs to have hind legs?  I don't get it. These dogs can barely walk!

@tarponben I second your thoughts. And R.I.P to your Elsa. I'm glad she lived as long as she did, being a large purebred. I recently lost both my dogs, though they were mixed breeds, so they lived to 15 and 17 respectively.

@12345675677 Agreed. What peeves me are those who argue that because a few groups decreed that the frog dogs were "better looking in show", and so that's where the current show standard has gone in America at least (Not sure about elsewhere.), that that's a reason to not argue against it at all. I can make my own choice, and I would choose the healthy dog every single time over what the newest FAD dog was.. You are VERY right in saying these look deformed, because.. really they are.

Thank you Jemima for your great work in highlighting the damage done to a special breed. I'm a lucky one my GSD (R.I.P Elsa) lived till she was 14 and a half without any hip problems due to her in my opinion having a straight back. lets hope more breeders take notice of your docs and start breeding for health rather than a breed standard. Good luck in your work Ben.

I doubted should I like this video or don't like. Thanx to the author for the good quality and for posting this video.

Another prime example of how a beautiful breed of dog has been brought to its knees. Beauty is not in the eye of the beholder in this case, if this was a child this would be considered gross neglect. All dog breeders had better start considering the ethical reasons for doing what they are to their dogs. Each breeding should be for the betterment of the breed. Firstly, you must understand anatomy & motion. None of these dogs show signs of correct movement. Shocking. The KC should be ashamed...

Beautiful dogs

All these dogs are probably going to get major hip problems just from the way they stand. They all looked forced, it seems painful (or looks that way) and they seem to have issues just walking.... If anybody actually cares for the breed, then breed them the right way to look like dogs, not ramps.
