Hmmm... Isn't it the other way around?
Conformation judging, by the nature of the beast, is a fairly subjective
exercise. While a portion of our Standard is objective, (i.e. size, color, ear
carriage, etc.), a goodly portion of the Standard's definition of a correct GSD
is subjective and, therefore, open to interpretation.

Have many reasons why I feel entries are down with GSD's but most are not
what people want to hear. So carry on.............

Another reason performance entries are up is that if the handler is
prepared and the dog well trained, the team
qualifies/passes/certifies/whatever.
If points are deducted or failure occurs, usually you know why, and if you
do not, the judge hands you a paper explaining it, so you know how to
improve the performance. Even though there is only one High in Trial, etc.,
many people get qualifying legs on their titles which is a positive
reinforcement. Conformation--not so much.
