Nans,

Xena never went thru the "gangly stage"... she was always well put together. I do feel that as she aged she filled out better.. This is Xena at 7 months.

This is her at 15 months..

 

Hexe and Jenni,

Here are a couple pictures I have of her feet...

5 months old (showing her feet and pasterns)

2 years old (showing her feet and pasterns)

Overall nicely built. 


by Nans gsd on 19 July 2015 - 16:07

Yep, like her a lot.  Do you have any of her as a little puppy??  Nan

Not going to 'critique' her, Jyl, as I don't see the point of analyzing a veteran bitch who isn't a Showdog and on the strength of a photo

Same here. Best head, shoulders and proportions I`ve seen in a long time in a WL female (or ever). Lovely pigment and really well agedThumbs Up

Thanks everyone for the nice comments about Xena.. I feel the same way about her. She is very well put together for a working line..and for her age as well. I hope she continues to stay like this.

Nans, I wish I had more pictures of her as a puppy.. But I didn't take any. I have maybe 5 pictures of her under a year.😟

She's not "well put together.....for a working line".....she is simply well put together (no caveats !). Clearly, structures like hers are built to last. I sincerely hope that the GSD as a breed, move into a structure like hers, and move away from the droopy rears and roachy backs.

Aaykay,
Thank you. I have always been more than pleased with how well Xena is put together. She moves very nice and free.. I am also happy with her conformation.. I would love another dog built like her
