[ SHOWGSD-L ] Re: GSD Standard: Coat Texture/Type

Thanks to all who wrote me off list (& on) about the terms "silky" and
"soft" in our standard, as designated faults. Got it!
I think my not understanding stemmed from having not seen these faults
personally, which led me to think I might have just *missed* them and was
therefore not properly *recognizing* when they are there. (I still have
never even personally encountered a non double coated long hair GSD, for
example.)
I guess it's a good thing for any listed fault to not be as prevalent! LOL.
Now if only I saw less of other very visible faults I commonly see here --
overstretched/overly narrow & long "snipey" muzzle or slinking type back
end motion. I think some of the purely visual type faults really still
detract from the extraordinary beauty of our breed, even if (thank God)
they don't affect health/function.
Cindy
