"finally a shepherd that looks like a shepherd should. i was begining to give up hope of finding a proper dog,do you know of any reputable breeders in the lincolnshire area that breed your type,as i just dont like the show type with there severe angulation,thanks in antisipation,"

I think someone needs to have a chat with frank !

I wouldnt touch it, uneven hips throws high hip scores quite a lot in the 50-95 range, and before its breeder/owner contacts me with threatening emails like in the past, dont bother otherwise I will list all progeny scores.

I have just visited your two sites rockforce and abben gsds.very nice head studies of all the stud dogs but iwould appreciate a photo of the dogs giving a side standing view so that we can see the backline .from looking at the pedigrees all bar one dog is of mainly german breeding.NYVARNA ,FAYELANDER are what would be classed as middle of the road TOLBERG is german breeding and of course LORNAVILLE is alsatian breeding.im glad to see all animals being hip scored and i noticed that at least one male was haemophelia tested.what i dont understand is why you keep slagging off the german side as i would imagine with these lines the animals wouldnt be to different to most of the dogs shown on the german side.LETS SEE SOME PICS SHOWING THE DOGS IN STANCE then we can see if there is any difference between your opinion on what constitutes to be a correct animal.i do admit that some animals do look to be exgarated in some pictures but i guess its the way the handlers stand them.i didnt like the photo of my bitch which was taken at crufts when she won the bitch cc in 2007.i look forward to seeing some photos soon.

Thanks Noddi for your opinion on these dogs.  So these dogs are good dogs ?? 

I wouldn't look far for water.....

I DIDNT SAY THESE WERE GOOD DOGS.HOW CAN I JUDGE THEM BY JUST THE HEAD PHOTOS.I NEED TO SEE A PIC.OF THE THEM STANDING IN  A SHOW STANCE TO ASSESS THEM CORRECTLY.AS I SAID IN MY LAST POSTING.PLEASE OBLIGE BY POSTING PICTURES AND THEN I CAN COMMENT OBJECTIVELY

These

These are very nice dogs to look at ! But they are long coats & do not conform to the breed standard so should be rejected from breeding .
