Also if the Shoulder isn't there he'll "lift", "pound", or "crab" depending on
what his
middle piece is like, to compensate. Balance is the Key . I'm no expert, but
I've found owners with a good shoulder think that is the Most important, Owners
with a good
Back think that is the Most important, Owners with a Nice Head think that......

Judges usually Know the best animal I do emphasize the word Know.

I like balance front to rear. If a dog dosen't have good strong rear drive, it
really doesn't need much of a front.

I judged in Germany this past year and I must say that the upperarm was the
most prevalent fault in all the male classes which I judged.
When Tedi and I started in shepherds, the biggest lack was shoulders. So, we
started to breed for it, and used it to pick our puppies. One time I was in
the ring with Bob Penny handling with me. He said to me, "the one thing I
always know, is if it is an Asgard dog, it can move." Movement has always been
a major consideration for us.
I know it is politically correct to say temperament is the major issue, but
for me, movement is what I want, to show, to judge and just to see in a
shepherd.
We have improved shoulder in the past years, and now it is not rare to see a
good shoulder. If you don't know what it is, watch what the better judges
put up.
Tedi is always looking for the better rears, I am watching for great fronts.
I don't think that has been a secret. That may be some help for anyone who
is going to enter a show under me.
It seems to work for me.
