I am looking for one oversized german sherpherd - Page 1

66 cm height

if u have, pls give the full details such as the price, shipping cost and etc.

From Malaysia

por qué????

Why?

from the general info section

Height: Dogs 24-26 inches (60-65cm.) Bitches 22-24 inches (55-60cm.)

not that much oversized, unless you want a female that big.    i would love for them to measure, in front of everyone their, the males at the sieger show.

why?    why do some people want white shepherds, or panda, or long coat, or showline?  why do some people want czech line and others prefer belgian?  different strokes for different folks.

i agree with the others, WHY? besides the fact that it is against the breed standards, it isn't good for a german shepherd to be huge. i know cuz i have a very large male. it is not good for their joints, they are not "breed worthy" and it is deliberately going against the standard. i adore my dog, but i am NOT a breeder or involved in shutzhund or show rings.

I don't mind it if a dog runs a little larger than the breed standard,   I don't want one but an over sized GSD is very intimidating and I've seen some very nice looking large  dog's.   I don't believe it effects their joint's.

But I wouldn't send a post card to Malaysia, much less a dog.    Cash or no cash.

Maybe I'm not being fair, I don't care, I don't have to be.

Something about the post just didn't gel for me.

Sorry ettan, no cigar!

from the general info section

Height: Dogs 24-26 inches (60-65cm.) Bitches 22-24 inches (55-60cm.)

What exactly is the wording in the breed std. about size?  Is oversize a disqualification? 

Also, isn't 26 inches equal to 66 cm, not 65?

65cm = 25.59056 inches  if you want to get down to the nitty gritty.

is oversize a d.q.,,,,,,,,,depends on the judge.   the problem is they have allowed dogs that are borderline too big for so long that now if a dog is a little over, that they have to allow it from the premise set from judges before them.  judges dont like to step on the toes of those before them. 

from the standard.
