That's a good point about the hanging ears fault.  Since sometimes we have
to artificially help dogs get upright ears (how many puppies have you seen
with foam curlers In their ears, elaborate taping, etc) it does seem that
we should really think about this.  Also, since a male with only one
hanging testicle can perform all of the other functions of a GSD and
compete in all other sports, shouldn't we remove that fault also?  LOL
