Again the Standard describes correct movement.  Faults of  movement are 
only implicitly defined.   It leaves the interpretation of  movement and 
transmission up to the judge.  You began this discussion  saying you could 
remove 
the fault of locked hocks by redefining the Standard.  You stated this in 
the context of the white GSD issue.   Do you  propose to change the Standard 
to say for instance that a GSD that fails to  extend in the hock beyond a 
certain angle is a fault or maybe the Standard  should say that GSD that can 
reach beyond it's nose is a fault?   How  should the Standard define the lack 
of side gait fault?
 
 
 
I got this in response to my proposal to solve the problem of locked  hocks 
by making the standard require it.
 
I won't say who sent me this, but it shows the danger of using  sarcasm, or 
innuendo on this List.  We can't see the sly smile, or the  nudge on a 
joke. It is a clear example of why we need to be careful of what we  say in 
writing, and not in person.
 
The Lister who responded with this, missed my point. But, he took time to  
respond and had good points. It was my fault to try to make a point and be a 
bit  obtuse. 
 
I understand not understanding my point, it was hyperbole.  But,  always 
remember that The Big Bang Theory is a slice of real life, and there is  some 
Leonard in all of us.
