Training pic - need opinion from experienced handlers - Page 1

I'd like to get a professional opinion from the experienced dog trainers and handlers that lurk on this discussion board.  Please review the photo below and give me your unbiased opinion.  (Please no responses from inexperienced hacks)

Here's my question... does this Malinois make my butt look fat?

:P  What?!?  Were you expecting a serious question?  Lighten up, people!  Sometimes you just gotta laugh at yourself. 

LOL!

Well, if I swung that I way, I would be interested....

Ok, I'll bite... I looked at the photo and noticed the full, hard grip.  Then I glanced at your butt and thought, Hmm she's cute...nice butt...   If you want my expert opinion......A malinois will make your butt look bigger in  a photo compared to a male GSD.  Which is one reason why I only work GSD's .......to make my beer belly appear smaller. 

By the way Yvette, Boomer and I are in our first week of the K9 school.  It's going great, hard work and long days.  Enjoying everyhting except for the 90 lb mali that twisted my ankle on Wednesday giving a leg bite on the suit....grrrr.  Thursday, 7 AM was a 2 mile run on a sprained ankle....Can't tell them your hurt or show any weakness.  But having a blast.

Not fat at all-very feminine and attractive!

 Wow,  no panty lines!

Nice butt but the thighs need shapening to compliment th ebutt properly. Potential but not admired right now.

Well crazy I have to disagree, those appear to be strong athletic thighs and legs and a nice waist line.  Which compliments the butt.  The mali's cute too.

JMO,

Jim

So,

It's come to this, blaming a poor dog for a bad pose!  

Based on my many year's of experience and dedication in the study of female posterior's,  I say no.

The angle is all wrong and there is not enough arch in the lower back.   The leg's should be closer together with one slightly forward.   

The Malinois does not make your butt look fat, only vulnerable and slightly off balance.

I suspect your butt is fine and should be presented in a more appropriate pose with possibly better light angle's and darker colored pant's.    Maybe heel's. 

Oh, and alway's look around with an inviting smile on your face.......:)

if your worried about the dog making your butt look big, get a rottie.   they make us all look smaller.

Yes i would agree on the Mal having good grips.Yes the Mal does have a tendency to make your but look a little big.Maybe you should go with the rotties .Theere heads and buts are bigger and you might want to get some training gear with long stripes.Hope this helps. Also you may try a bigger hat this would draw there attetion upwards!!!!L.O.L. TRAIN HARD AND WHO CARES WHAT YOU LOOK LIKE IT AINT NO FASHION SHOW. You could try putting a pink sweeter on the dog .
