Neutered working line male, for a TR2. We did his Sch I last year but bite work really isn't his thing so I'm going to pursue tracking titles with him.
A DDR working line female puppy who is just a baby and bit over the top on her food drive in tracking.
A half German showline / half German working line female puppy who's tracking ability is devine for a baby her age.

Oh, how are you doing with the half show half working? I hear a lot of people want to do it. I have seen success once in the Eurosport guy, but again, I am new to hands on schutzhund world. Do you have pictures?

At the moment she's just a baby but so far I've been pleased with her tracking.
Afraid I lay tracks too early in the morning for any other sane soul to be awake to take pictures.

TessJ10, thank you, exactly my point on the BH. I just didn't feel like detailing it as it's usually waste of time around here. Scoring in the 190s in AKC (and I have, with multiple dogs, in all three rings, many times) takes a LOT of work. If you want to scrape out with a 170 your dog still cannot lay down in a long sit, anticipate a recall, etc., which will not necessarily fail in a BH.
Jenni- I agree with you 100%. To me a real working dog (ie K9, border patrol, etc) is every bit as good as a titled dog and often better. And sometimes timing on a bitch's cycle sucks and a test breeding isn't the worst thing in the world. You have to look at someone's whole program. But the folks studding out (V) Fritz vom Awesomehaus BH AD "a" (SchH1, SchH2, SchH3, KKL1) are posers and pretty unlikely to own a real working dog, don't you think?
Windy- it's great you're trying to learn and I hope you continue to do so and enjoy yourself and your dogs. Unfortunately, due to past postings you've created hostility toward yourself as many folks around here have long memories and hold grudges. I will admit I am a skeptic, too. I suggest you let it go, if you want to do great things, just go do them, after all, the greatest revenge is success, is it not?

Kczaja..lol...I love the BH, AD, SchH1, SchH2, SchH3, FH1, FH2...my favorite to see someone post all of them together, when "SchH3, KKL1" would suffice. That pretty much tells me they haven't a clue and are just maximizing titles, and if they're doing that, it makes me doubly suspicious that they're ONLY breeding BECAUSE of titles. THAT is my issue w/the "no titles, no breeding" mentality- it works too often in the reverse. Titles shouldn't always mean breeding.

Hey Tessj10................. is Cairo vom Windy Ridge BH, AD,CD, CGC your boy?

A BH is not a title.
A good way to understand might be to look at it this way:
If SchH is like a college degree then a BH would be like taking the SATs.
It's different because a BH is either pass or fail.
An SAT has a cut-off, but the higher you score the better college you get into.
If your dog passes the BH but not in a stellar way, it could help you decide what to do with him next - at least if you are honest with yourself.
