West German Working lines

are such exist?

Valk,

Of course West German Working lines exist... I'm sure you know this... what exactly are you asking?

LOL !!! RichCarne are trolling? No, I have not EVER talk negatively about WG dogs as a generalization. While there are differences between E block DDR/Czech type of dogs and WG type of dogs. I often defend WG dog. Through years I am saying repetitively that it does not matter where good dogs come.As a matter of fact I often in jest use example of China , Russia or Iceland. Good dog is a good dog. I do say that good dogs are where you find them. Also, I say that all GSD come from Germany. Good dog is a good dog. While I promote Old Style Czech line I do not ever disparage WG lines. I challenge you to show me where I have criticized WG dogs as such. I as a rule do not criticize any countries GSd lines in general. As a matter of fact I am a staunch opponent of geographical differentiation of the breed and geographical purity of pedigrees.  
I am attacking WG breeders or nonbreeders who are spreading lies about Czech dogs.

There are many vernacular definitions of so-called "lines".
lines can be show-sport-work
or can be divided by geographical purity of pedigree.

or by lines produced by the specific kennel,... and combinations of thereof.  I am sure that there may be some other way do describe lines. All those lines can be described by Male blood lines.

seems like days, when Germany was source of dogs for working purposes, have passed long ago.
at least main sources today are Holland/Belgium for malis and Czech for german shepherds.
from Germany seems like mostly sporting dogs comes.

I agree Valk, that has been my observation.

at this moment Valk, I am buying best pedigree malinois and GSD from Slovakia, generally speaking 

 

Black malinois, read my last post again about qualitys of czech lines and desired qualities for KNPV,

Good dogs are where you find them. WG still has some excellent working dogs. However, it is a popular bumper sticker cliche to say otherwise. You just need to know where to look. WG dogs are much more expensive though.

Definition for " good dogs" is different for different people.

To some people, " good dog" is what ever they can sell to suckers.

To others, " good dog" is what has the genetics to fulfill a job...
