Unfit perhaps not... but I have seen many a cowhocked herding dog,
especially in Border Collies. I have a friend with a service dog that had to
have elbow surgery (not a GSD) due to elbow dysplasia.
Back before the advent of "breeds" and Standards, people bred based on
performance. If the dog(s) did the work they were more often bred from. To
some degree that still does happen. Even in the performance venues. Saw a
show some time ago where people were breeding Jack Russels with Border
Collies expressly for Flyball..

If we were required to have a working title on our dogs before we could

difference in structure and overall fitness for that venue.
