I would have to agree with that judge, if they move properly and correctly, the
structure has to be there. I tend to look at a dog as a "package" overall,
including movement, it has to look right and be balanced. So if a dog has a
short upper arm, or is overangulated or too straight in the rear, the movement
will not be fluid and effortless. I believe that a correctly structured
balanced dog will move correctly and balanced. Chris Chris S.

Subject: [ SHOWGSD-L ] List Viability Test - GSD Structure & Movement
Is the List dead? No, I think not dead, but limping along until subjects
with a "political bouquet" are being discussed. If the List were to exist just
for that purpose, it's kind of sad, but okay. Discussion/debate is always a
good thing.
Now for the test... A couple years ago, I was sitting ringside with a very
well known judge. We were discussing conformation, specifically angulation and
movement. The judge told me that he rarely studies the angles/conformation of
the dogs he's judging; he only considers the dog's movement. In other words,
if the dog moves correctly, he must be built correctly.
Agree or disagree? Please discuss.
Thanks, Paulette
