1. Noise and object shy: I could live with this, all things considered.
However, that type of temperament is unpredictable.
2. Shy: I have seen many "shy" dogs trained for the showring. Although I
don't agree with this, it can and IS done.
3. Fearbiter: I've owned two of these and put one of them to sleep. Put to
sleep.
4. Aggressive: An aggressive dog can be totally unpredictable, although an
"alpha" person could handle it. I wouldn't want one in MY pack.
5. Unpredictable aggression: This is the dog that is NUTS--GSDs SHOULD be
thinking, reasoning dogs. These aren't. Put to sleep.
Like Barbara said, most of us wouldn't want any of these temperaments.
Unfortunately, in the showring today, you see it. It may be drugged, it may be
trained, but a good eye can STILL pick it out.
