I read alot about many says what and why the gsd has a roached back and angulated hindlegs and it always comes up that only the showlines that is roached or have the banana back I dó disagree it is rare to to find a really straight back dog with No angulated hindlegs just like when you see a rottweiler or Mali How and what would you define A's roached and not roached ????? Please put In pics of dogs that you Think is not roached and dogs that are to over anguled or dogs that is roached

Yes I agree both dogs have the roach but when I read and talk to people many says that there gsd does not have the roached back and angulated hindlegs ispecially those who have working lines sorry but I rarely see a straight back working lige maybe they dont have the exstreme roached back as showlines but they are on there way and they certainly do have the over angulated legs


this dog is what I call without roach and the angulated legs beutiful dog

now this is a picture of a  very roach back or banana back, i cant stand to look at this one-

i prefer to have the straight back showlines, very little roach as possible.



i hope this has helped you...

Oh my God, she looks like a Camel, Trixx is that picture true and not photoshopped? How could the breeder/owner dare to show her !!!

Myret:  Look at the difference in backs on both...TOP is Rex from  Bruno v  arminius showline most of the pedigree with a slight noticeable roach...NOT a whole lot but enough to be noticed.

Chelsie on bottom....old west German WL /mom is Black Queen von der Held , back to Vedor. Orthos and Nick v Lascher-Haus.....straighter back

Raydo is from Uran v Wildsteigerland/ Lava v Korbelbach/ grand dam and  grand sire and has a perfectly straight back

OMG that poor, poor dog. Who can think that can possibly be right......and who gets to live in that body the rest of its life?

This is why IMO the correct STRAIGHT back should only be bred for and only ever rewarded, because there will always be some $%^%* idiot out there that will just go more and more extreme......and this is what you get. And they were PROUD of it!  Shame on the breeder. Shame on any judge that allowed this poor dog to remain in the ring.

What a travesty, and how sad.
