Kennel club a disgrace - Page 1

i thnk that the kennel club is a disgrace. They have gone astray from the actual standard, and not bothered about the health problems, to me it looks like they are more bothered about the money.
They have changed the german shepherd standard, to such a disgrace,and not even bothered about the prblems they are causing.
Once they realsied them, they blamed all GSD exhibitors for it. I thnk we should split away from the kennel club or get them to do the following:

1) all gsd's are hip and elbow tested
2) All males are tested for hamephelioa(cant spell it, sorry)
3) The german shepherd standard, is changed to the way it should be.
4) The proper name, the German Shepherd Dog, is applied, and not Alsatian.


WHO AGREES WITH THIS, OR HAS ANYTHING TO ADD?

Below is a proper Geman shepherd as it should be:


Hip scores=excellent, and is a champion!!

And below is what the kennel club want it to be:


A dog with no hip scores, probably weak hips, and definetly a weak back. Not tested on anything, no schutschuind titles.

By the way just for Videx GSD, i was born in Pkistan, but live in England, and am worried about this matter.

this post has either stopped from me, or has been handed over to Videx GSD

VIDEX GSD IF YOU WISH TO ENHANCE AND USE THIS POST, ITS YOURS FOR THE TAKING.

Hamza, if what (you claim) they want is the English lined dog, then why is it that whenever Crufts comes around, it's a German lined dog that wins?

I personally disagree with you on that German dog being a proper Shepherd....I personally love the Salztalblick dogs though xD

A dog with no hip scores, probably weak hips, and definetly a weak back. Not tested on anything, no schutschuind titles.
Who is the dog and how do you know any of this?  You don't have x-ray vision, so you can't claim the dog has bad hips...you don't know.  Have you seen this dog in motion to know he has a weak back?

And there are more people on this board than Videx that can teach about (German) show lines.

Because the standard, of what they want, has not yet been accepted, and no alsation dogs have currently gone into crufts. So the judges still look for the best German showline, as it would be pointless looking for the best british line.

I know there may be more people than Videx, but i trust them the most, and know they know the most information, an can get the most as well.

Yes i have seen that dog in motion. He walks in an absolutely disgraceful way, which is spread out, and small steps are taken,probably aching his back. If he was ever stood, he would slurch, and everytime the handler or judge touched his back, he would litteraly slouch down, and lick his back.

I know there may be more people than Videx, but i trust them the most, and know they know the most information, an can get the most as well.
Not "May be", are.  To limit yourself to one person is foolish.

Heck, maybe you'd think my bitch has bad hips, from the way she stands :p

I think the point hamza is trying to make is that none of us know what his hips are like because he has never been tested
