Can You Say "Knucklehead"??? - Page 6

Yep, and I bred him for myself.  One sister is with a SchH home in Ohio, one brother is with the Memphis PD and I have the rest of them here.  They can stay here as long as they wish, I guaranty it.

charlie319 has clearly dominated that volley. 

How so?  I don't play tennis, it's a sport for guys with shaved legs.

Do you notice the similarities in these 2 dogs??

I notice the similarity in some Mali breeders... and some owners.

No real records, no real restraint in breeding...  Must be hard to buy on "faith".

BTW, I can see why you don't play tennis among your peers...  You strike more as a badmington man...  So, are you going to get a GSD to replace your dearly departed one, or you're just talking for talk's sake?

Dearly departed one?  I've never owned one that stayed long enough to pass away.  The last Shepherd I owned was a Quincy vom Waldwinkel son, gave him away.  Lost @$4000 on that one.   Growth plate closed, needed bi-lateral osteotomy and was too soft, had no motor,

prior to that, the last one was a Aras vom Schwarzen Wachter son

http://www.pedigreedatabase.com/gsd/pedigree/405110.html   semi-long coat, one testicle, over bite and the worst set of hips I've ever seen on a dog.  Gave him away, another loss of a $1000 puppy.  The list could go on for about 12-15 over the years.  Will not go down that path again.  Have had Malinois since the early 90's and will not own anything else.  So gee, does that qualify me to be able to "read" the GSD Forum? 

Pardon me while I go polish my shuttlecock

I suspected they had passed on from boredom...  Was that Ebo or Aras?  Both instances just tell me a bit about your ability to assess and purcahse a GSD.  So, if your last GSD was two decades ago, there is either a dearth of Mali boards you've not been embarrassed out of, or you just are trying to learn from others.

I'm sure that you apply some spit to that polish...

I finally read some of the drivel that Chuckie has spewed about what he/she thinks they know about the work for the "Performance Test" for conformation working dogs and I just noticed some confusion regarding the rules. 

Chuckie says,

" By the way, the attack is not made on the "handler", but the "helper" or "decoy", unless your fine working-line dog (is he a DDR pup or something altogether different?) has decided to turn on you."
 

Well my under informed friend, you may want to check the USA rulebook under Sieger Show Regulations for the following explanation of exercises,

III. PERFORMANCE AND EVALUATION TEST
All dogs of the Working Dog Classes must participate in the Sieger Show Performance Test. There will be two (2) helpers; one for the “attack on handler” and one for the "pursuit and courage test".

The dog has three (3) tries to perform the free heeling exercise to the attack on handler and must reach a predetermined distance from the blind (20 feet) to pass. The actual attack will commence when the dog is between 10 to 15 feet from the blind. The distance from the starting point of heeling to the blind will be 60 feet.
 

You may also note that the "attack on handler" is to commence when the dog is between 10 and 15 feet from the blind, not 75 to 100 where it basically turns into a prey bite.  Maybe you should invest in a rulebook so you know of which you speak.

As far as further "discussion" on the subject matter that you have changed, if you want to continue, PM me.  Since you feel so strongly about coming after me personally, let's not waste other's time here, come after me behind the woodshed,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,I'll be waiting.

My mistake.  I thought you meant the attack on the helper, and not the staged attack on the handler who sends the dog to attack the helper.  However, the issue on "the attack on handler " reference was about  Triumphs Gucci scores and your allegation of: "Don't insult the intelligence of people on this board by showing a watered down SchHI bite performance where the attack on handler is done from 100 ft away as a prey bite. So not impressed. Answer the question, WHAT WERE THE SCORES???"

As for your invite, I can see that your skin is thin and terse...  If you are right, then this must be the only thread you post on.  I do this mostly as entertainment, so "My time" is not wasted.  Maybe yours is....  You may want to take some reading material with you.
