Carolyn, what do you mean when you say "weird" croups?  Flat, steep, short, 
or what?

From: Denise Williams   Subject: [ SHOWGSD-L ] breeding question
I was reading an article on breeding today, and it stated that breeders 
should know which faults
in the breed are hard to eradicate, and which ones can be fixed in one 
generation?
Does anyone have any comments on faults that are very hard to fix, and those 
that can be
 fixed/bred for in one or two generations.   Denise W.

                                  
*****************************************************
YAAAAAAAAAAAAYY!!!    A possible discussion about dogs and show dogs!!
 I'll always bite.........<G>

Of course the fault we would ALL love to eradicate is ANY health issues!

Conformation-wise.....we stay away from those we think 'haunt' you the most 
in our opinion.
I hate the way these crop up and 'haunt' a line ......and seem to be 
difficult to "fix".
We avoid them like the plague........ <G>
i.e.
Missing teeth, ring tails, bad backs, long weak loins,  and weird 
croups..........YIKES!!
I can't stand bad feet either........ but they seem relatively easy to 
correct.

Everything else seems relatively easy to solve.   The key of course is 
getting it ALL in
one great dog that is mentally and physically sound with great correct side 
gait and yet
agile, powerful and athletic.............sigh......
