Merry Christmas Eve to you Steve!
Nice head, ears look good, hard to tell but look a little wide set. Beautiful color and coat looks lush. Tight feet, good pasterns. Awesome topline, well balanced. Looks a wee bit over angulated in the rear (the stifle is to rounded for my taste) but it doesn't appear weak. Good shoulder, good chest, ribs look well sprung. Croup and tail set look good. It could be all that hair but he looks a tad chubby, not much tuck. Very handsome fellow!

Unlike many geniuses here, personally, I can't say much from a stacked photo. If like most show people, you are putting all of your stock in how a dog can stand for a photo, he definitely 'aint VA. However, if you ask me about his working potential, which to me is the most important factor, ouch!!!, Love the blood. 3-3 Manto, Crok, Yoschy. Hips are good and if the rest of his health is in order, who gives a rat's a#% about how he looks stacked. Looks like he can jump well and if the grips and play are like I think they should be, it wouldn't surprise me if he put up some nice scores. How does he track?
As far as your comments about my response to the Michael Ellis subject, you have no idea about my experiences with the man or my experiences with the sports of French Ring and SchH. It was suggested that his videos were a good investment for people interested in training, I gave my opinion having had experience with him and also having had experience in PP, Schutzhund, French Ring and Police K9 over the past almost 30 years. If someone else has had different experiences with him, good for them, I for one reserve the right to disagree. As a side note, I have little respect for someone who continues to breed animals that consistently produce hip and elbow dysplasia as well as eye problems. We have all seen what breeding dogs with questionable health has done to the GSD and I don't want to see it perpetuate in the Malinois. Merry Christmas.

I wanted a Photo of him to hang on the wall, of all my dogs in keeping them 60 years i have never had one to hang on the wall and although i can see them all now in my minds eye i wish i had taken a pic of them,
So i got this one done specially for that purpose. As for showing he is not as you say he is a working dog,
As far as his jumping is concerned, He can jump over the 1 meter jump from just standing still and leap over he does not need a few strides at it and if you let him he will go back and forth over the meter jump and the A frame on his own he loves it
As for his tracking which has now been held up for near on 2 months has all his other work in training he is great never misses an article in training goes down at each one and is good on the track no complaints there
But i had the Pic done so i thought the Guys would like to give there opinion of him but whatever he is thats it, but it makes a bit of interest without any arguing
Now i have not been on the thread where i posted regards Mr Ellis
as i said i do not know the man But what i said about us all needing help at some time of the other stands we all have in some way or another, You may have replied to my post on the other thread i do not know until i see it but why mention it on this thread it has no bearing, I take your points in hand on my dog though
