The  fault that bothers me the most is temperament. 



I have to agree with Laura, but mostly I hate it when they bite and draw  
blood. Now, I know we use these dogs for Schutzhund, but I hate to leave the  
ring with teeth marks on my arm. Maybe I am too fussy, but there is a time 
and a  place for everything.
 
Any judge who has judged for more than a couple of years, knows the  
temperament of what they are looking at. We don't need a temperament test, (or  
as 
I refer to it, "the long stand and stay").  A simple look at the dog and  
in his eyes will tell you all that you need to know. But, it is important 
that  you not make a mistake. Maybe the dog is sound, but just nuts, or maybe 
had a  bad day driving to the show, and is angry.  So, we all do the loose 
lead  temperament test, then judge the dog  on our knowledge and ignore the  
test.
 
Not that there is anything wrong with that.
