So here's something to think about and it is just my opinion (one of many!)...
 
Dogs, appear to me, to have two different types of muscles... Bunchy, bulky 
muscles and long flat muscles... Dogs such as GSDs for the most part, have long 
flat muscles - goes with more flexibility. Dalmatians have two different types 
- dogs with a long flying trot typically have flat muscles, dogs with a correct 
endurance gait have tighter muscles.
 
Here is my question...How is it that dogs with long, flat muscles can become 
heavy fronted coming at you? Where do they put the muscling on - over the upper 
portion of the shoulders and along the withers or over the forearem and lower 
shoulder?  Dals can be heavy fronted, but it goes with the short bunchy muscles.
 
Just something to ponder......
