Mr. Fred Lanting Mr.GSD@juno.com critique on Dyson vom Royale

Best of Breed: I saw this dog, "Dyson" in two 2018 shows, giving him BOB in both, with strong competition in this one, the annual UKC "Premier" event. I since learned that both parents of this combination, have OFA-Excellent hips, which only a very small percentage do. Examining his pedigree, I find admirable benefits in health, character, and style, and am very comfortable with highly recommending him at stud. In competition, he exhibits medium size with good bone, excellent topline from good masculine head through high withers, nearly-level back, to good slope & length of croup. Excellent (correct, nearly 1;1) height-to-chest ratio, good forechest, short loin, plenty of rear angulation without being extreme. Stands and moves correctly coming and going, with firm elbows and hocks, and good single-tracking. Side-gait correct and balanced, with good ground -covering stride. Out-crossed; highly recommended for good bitches of all bloodlines; will improve anatomical soundness and complement good temperament in breeding partners. Will tend to correct oversize bitches.
