Well here I go way out on the limb.....
 I pick the one with superior structure and try to keep in mind that this =
is a working breed that was bred to think, that maybe, just possibly, this=
 dog does not find running in circles that challenging. I then leave the s=
how grounds really , really fast so the owners of the Mr Never Puts a Foot=
 
Down Wrong. don't do me in :0)
 
But who knows maybe I would do it the other way. The reason is right now I=
 have a very promising teenager that thinks showing is BORING!!!!!. Attitu=
de can be everything and it really can make a difference in the way the do=
g shows himself. There could also be an argument that the GSD main reason 
TO BE is to serve the owner. If  I think running in circles is REALLY impo=
rtant then the dog should be eager to please me and not himself.
 
Terry who really dislikes self centered dogs.
