I judged the Shilohs for years at ARBA. One year I even gave one Best In
Show, since he came closer to their standard than any other group winner
that year came to their standard. As best I recall it was between the Shiloh
and the Black Russian, and the Black Russian was too small.
The ones I judged in general were large, gentle, shaggy dogs, that were not
great movers, but real lovers.
I felt that they took a bunch of traits of our breed that were undesirable
and made a new breed from them. The temperament was way too friendly, the
coat was an open coat and too long, they lacked front reach and rear drive,
and they were too big to do the work we ask of a GSD. But, the owners
loved them.
Then Bob Slack, the owner of ARBA and Tina had a fight over judging them,
and they were excluded from ARBA. I don't know if there is any venue to
show a Shiloh any more, and I expect the dogs will die off as a breed. Or,
maybe not.
I remain the attorney for ARBA.

My overall
impression was just a big, shaggy GSD w/ no type, often questionable
temperament.
