Jackie; To quote the GSD standard..."ANY missing teeth OTHER THAN first premolars is a SERIOUS fault (emphasis was added by me). That should answer your question unless you really think a judge wants to go on record as saying they would be willing to place an animal with a serious fault. Although there may be some that would do such a thing, I really doubt you are going to get anyone to put it in writing. <VBG> Lanalee Jorgensen -----Original Message----- From: MarcatoGSD@xxxxxxx To: Showgsd-l@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Sent: Tue, 6 Dec 2005 16:14:19 EST Subject: [ SHOWGSD-L ] Re: Missing Teeth Yes, but I'm not positive it's a molar. Until I'm sure it's a molar, I'd really just like an answer as if it's not. And I am aware of what is allowed to be missing for teeth, but I want to know if the dog has a chance of being put up if it is an allowable missing tooth. - Jackie ============================================================================ POST is Copyrighted 2005.
