Are most of these dogs still producing I looking for currently producing high-line dogs domestic or international that can really work and aren't just show camps with no substance.

 Mameloe,

There are two words in English pronounced the same way. 

Pray = to pray, as in speaking to one's God.

Prey = used correctly above, meaning the desire and natural instinct an animal has for chasing things that move, often what it intends to kill and eat.

Prey = This word can also mean that someone or animal can "prey" on others....such as a man stalking a woman (secretly or not trying to harass her), or someone "preying" on the weak old woman with a purse walking to her car from the market.

So it is not the same word as is associated with Catholics or any religion. Sind Sie Deutche? Ich hoffe dass ich Sie geholfen habe.

"Are most of these dogs still producing I looking for currently producing high-line dogs domestic or international that can really work and aren't just show camps with no substance."

Several sons of 2004 VA2 Hill vom Farbenspiel have been noted as having nice drives, including 2007 VA3 Dux de Cuatro Flores, V40 Hillson von Athaba, V 13 Andrjuscha van Noort, 2009 VA3 Yukon von der Bastillie, V18 Tabo vom Zellwaldran and V14 Hannibal vom Stieglerhof among several others.  

Hill's sire line goes back through Cello von der Romerau ,whom ziegenfarm noted above, directly to Mutz von der Pelztierfarm.  Mutz is one of the pillars of the modern German Shepherd, and his presence remains very strong in working lines even though there are few sire line showline options for him other than through Hill.

Some experts here have also long sung the praises of the working ability and hardness of the Quartz dei Templari - Triumph's Gucci line, but I don't know which current dogs out of that line would be considered the best to pass their traits on.
