The Heresy is too ingrained in the Showline Enthusiasts to where Rationale & Logic is anathema & not welcome to them.
But I like those that argue the virtues of the mythical 'working' showline
Split registries...
One- Working with strict working & breeding requirements.
And a 2nd for Showlines.
Ive said my peace

They have superior health and a longer working life.
Malis trounce GSDs at the SCH FCIs year after year.
GSDs hardly feature in top competition in other protection sports, KNPV, Mondio, NBVK so forth.

Go away and do your homework !. You will find not only are there show dogs behind BSP competitors but behind the winners too !.
My point was only to state the facts that there are plenty of show dogs behind MOST of the TOP working German Shepherds past and present , combination lines are successful whether you like it or not !.
There are more show dogs that can work well than working dogs that can show well.
Its obvious that time alone and the work involved will prevent people from excelling in both disciplines so they choose their discipline , but that by no way always means the dogs are not capable of doing the other discipline just as well !.
Why are show dogs required to work Schutzhund for the Sieger show ?????????.
Why are working dogs required to have a show grading for the Koerung ????????.
Surely these things are required to show the great versatility of this wonderful breed and to help us all to breed from the best quality dogs available in the future !.
As I have already said earlier there is good and not so good dogs in both disciplines I have seen show bred dogs that are not showable and working bred dogs that are not workable !.
P.S. The Alsatian type are NOT worthy of either !.

NEVER THE LESS THEY ARE THERE !!!!!.
I have always kept BOTH working bred dogs and show bred dogs and combination lines for which I am passionate about both and respect both so I suggest you should leave this thread and go back to your more than obvious passion for EXTREME SPORT DOGS !.
