I am a new owner of German Shepherds and would love any feedback you can give on my dog. She is posted in the database. Lilo aus der Waldkonig Thanks so much for your time and input.

Nice head and pigment. very nice.

Kelster42, you need to stack her properly. However shes has a nice head... nice body and ok pigment (I'm not a big fan of bi's). Hows her bitework and obedience? Do you have any other pictures of her? Is she titled?

I just dont think you can go wrong with a Dargo daughter! :-)

I was thinking the same thing Jerry

Thanks How do you "stack" correctly?

Kelster42, to teach your dog the stacking potsition . this is part of the obedience part... I would gently kneel down to the dog and take his legs and place them properly where they belong... I would suggest to look at some of the properly stack pictures on this website before you can do the right thing... heres samples of my dogs recent stack pictures http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v403/Spiritwolfz/Zambi/Stacked/1.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v403/Spiritwolfz/Zambi/Stacked/ZambiJake060.jpg They aren't professionally stacked nor photoed but Im also learning the correct ways :) Now this may take some time so dont rush it thru. ou will need TONS of patients with this so dont think is a quick thing to do :) Just like obedience practice you need to have stacking practice as well. It will take time to have that perfect stack picture... some people say that you need 3 ot 4 people to do this but thats not nessassarly correct. I only use 2 people (or 1, myself)... one thats taking the picture and one that distracts the dog... like with a toy or lifting up the arms so the dog can stare at it for curisty. Heres my little trick of stacking.. While im training my dog to stack properly... I give her at least 2 mins to stack without making a move... after that i praise her and give her the command to give her the ok to move... I give her Lots of loves and give her a treat every so often... each time your dog goes better you can advanace the time. I don't know how anybody else does their stacking but it helps me a lot... When I stack my dog again.. I'll try to get it on video... to show you guys exactly what I'm talking about.. Anyhow Im dead ass tired... I'll explain more when im fully awake.
