Thanks Ibrahim....
I can definitely tell the difference between the two in the mouth area. The neck area of the Bi-color is harder to see because of the black neck and lighting but I can still see a difference. Also, the first dog appears to be thicker in the loin area as opposed to the second dog who's loin area appears tight and tucked up (like a finely conditioned race horse). Would this also be considered part of the over all type description?
I've been looking at different pictures of working line sires and going by the definitions given here, it would seem that most working line dogs are of a more "dry" body type?

clc29,
I had same observation too, I will tell you more about the skin, I have noticed that younger dogs have softer and thinner skins, females have softer and thinner skins than males, show GSDS have softer/thinner and more loose skins than work GSDs, the bi-color dog has tight thick and very seamless skin, when given an injection under skin doctor has to hold the injection tightly, firmly and has to push with determination and dog experiences pain.

I think dry/wet is a function of body subcutaneous fat. Like some men have very tight bodies, and faces (Clint Eastwood when young!). Is it a fault in the ring ?..what is its significance.
