Never "measured" the speed - a fast dog is a dog faster than me
But I found something very interesting for you - it´s written in German - pages 113 - 115 a summary in English.
Way too complex for me, but _I guess you are able to understand the text ( a lot of charts ).
They are talking about the distribution between fore- and hindquarters.

I remembered our discussion about correlation between front- and hindquarters months ago...

Thanks Aakay and Joan for comments Joan also showing a nice youngster
I have only one question if we looking to the wolf,wild dog.dingo this animals are created by evolution
by mother nature and related to dogs and what kind of build do we see to survive because they are also predators.........
Long legs , straight back
Do human knows it better than mother nature than what we see mostly in the standard GSD today??????????

Heck no!! And there is absolutely no animal found in nature that even remotely resembles the two dogs Ibrahim posted to represent 'correct' and 'not'. Which by the way, I see no difference in the rears of either dog.

For me, whether myself or my sister, we usually cover the 5 kilometers in 25 minutes, rest for 10-15 minutes then head back, same distance and same time. We don't do it often and only in winter and early spring. That means 10 kilometers in 50 minutes, which means speed is average 12 kilometers per hour which is equivalent to 7.5 miles per hour.
But in fact my question was not about the speed, rather about the distance. 12 miles (19 kilometers) is an excellent distance to trot in a limited time without rest, I don't say it is unusual or extra super, I only say I doubt my dog will do that, I did not try, did any one try it? because it shows how fit a dog is, and how good his endurance is. If anyone exercises his dog please share info. If Joanro's dog can do that, then a well conditioned show line should do better than that, does any showline owner do better than that with his/her dog?, I would love to know.

Joanro, if we don't get answer from no one I will try on next Friday how much my Duke's boy can do, I assure you he has much more angulation than yours, he is one year old now. I have no stack picture of him
by joanro on 15 December 2015 - 22:12
Simple answer; it doesn't !

Ladies, that means you are not looking at the right part that shows rear angulation, huh and I told Mackenzie from the start to show us what rear angulation is and what correct angulation is, that means we do not agree on what rear angulation is, what are we talking about then Joan and Marcel?!. Marcel, go back to Susie post, GSD is a breed not a wolf. Also if Joan is precise, then I deduct a gsd can cover much more than the 50 miles a wolf does in 24 hours. Hers covers 12 miles in one hour, so it can cover 60 miles in 5 hours and rest in the other 19 hours and laughs at the wolf
