Your opinions on my 6 month old female PLEASE? (: - Page 2

What does FWIW mean?

For what it's worth

Please see my edit on my above post.

Any other opinions now that I got a picture of her semi-stacked?

Since you are asking I am assuming you want the trueth and can handle it.

I am NOT  a expert  but these are my thought

so here goes.


Head - her ear s are too big for her head but she does have nice expression to her as said above.

Top line - looks to have a dip.  Shoulder needs some height  which would help the top line

Shoulder is nice vs some working lines I have seen

Feet - she looks to be a little east to west and her toes are not as compact,  a little back on her pastern

Tail - nice and long no over hook or screw

Color - nice and rich

looks to have a nice crop specially in the working lines (still short)

She looks to be of good weight and size

AGAIN   ......NOT an expert...... Molly or  Don come to mind that has more experienced and would be the one to ask


OK I just saw that she is six months   so there is a lot of growing  to be done and some of the things I pointed out will change?  but this is what I see now.

 FYI I'm not the Molly referred to in the above post, I'm by no means an expert.

I think the stack makes it a little hard to judge, because the back feet are (from my pov) not positioned right, the hocks are turned in and the feet are spaced too wide? I know how hard it is to stack with no help, for me it's almost impossible. Sometimes my dog looks great, sometimes not. All because of feet position and where he's looking/turning. 

In a great stack I have a good enough eye to tell the difference between good structure and not so good, but other than that I can't tell at all. I love her coloring and her expression. Her shoulder does look good to my inexperienced eye. Changing my camera's settings to take 10 pictures automatically one after the other on a timer has helped me when I'm doing it by myself.

I love her pigment and her expression. I am not an expert but you can tell that she has a good deal of growing to do.

Stacking on your own is hard. :) She looks happy. I would love to see more pictures of her.

She is a perfectly lovely six month old working lines female.  So much can still happen between now and maturity, but she looks as if she has the build for the active dog sports you have in mind.  Her expression and overall look are just fine.

Thanks for all your opinions! If anyone has anymore for me, keep 'em coming! (:

None of the above points with mean a thing if you intend eventually to work her in Schutzund when you find a place, If you intend to show her that may be different but not for as a working dog, The Stack or any of the other points will mean nothing,
Now if you intend later for breeding that is a different story
