It's more complicated than one being working and the other being
show.....I have dogs from West German lines that are working lines,
not show lines.
Over-generalizing this a bit, but if you see a German dog that is
black and red with a saddle pattern and a plush coat, it's probably
from show lines. German dogs that are sable, black, or bi-color are
more often the working lines dogs.
The DDR/Czech dogs have a different look than the West German dogs,
even when comparing the working dogs. The heads look very
different.....me personally I prefer the West German look. Best thing
to do is look at pictures. Here's a link with pictures of several DDR
dogs: http://vombanachk9.homestead.com/stud_dogs.html
