Look at this picture and try to find out when this female was born and out of which lines she might be.
I know, the picture is black and white, otherwise it would be too easy...

I only wanted to show all of you this outstanding female, Betty vom Glockenland, born in 1965, VA1 in 1967.
This dog is amazing, she still would get her V-rating, and she was born 47 years ago!
She looks like a "modern" showline, but she was born years before there was the split between show- and workinglines.
I love this female!

Look at angulations, withers, topline...
When might this dog be born?

I have him in my picture file, because hie reminds me a lot of my male GSD, in colouring (but maybe not so much in structure!) Also, he was a popular sire on this side of the pond.
Edit: I was way off! He was born July 23, 1949!
Here's an interesting article about the 1955 sieger show, when he took the VA1 placing.

I didn´t know this report.
In my opinion it´s important for the "younger" ones to see, that there have been well structured dogs decades ago.
Hasn´t changed that much at all.
Kind regards,
Susie

Don't thank me, thank Ferrum GSDs, who has done SO much to preserve the history of our breed, by posting pedigrees, photos and articles of dogs from years gone by!
