This is his first attempt at 2 meters! I was so happy and proud! He moved from 6ft to 6.5ft today.

I have to put some concrete support on it before he can jump anymore ...its a little worn out. lol

He's a good boy to do as you ask, even on a wobbly wall.

looks not very safe for the dog.....the straight wall was banned from Schutzhund because of severe injuries happening to dogs not getting off the wall correctly.

I think that it is impresive that he can go over that wall.  I personally will not be doing it with my boy because I dont want to injure him.  Not saying that he will be injure for sure but the dismount just looks hard and to risky.

I understand he could land wrong and get injured. I have took alot of time to condition him up to this level to prevent injury. Almost a year.

I believe the palisade in ringsports go up to 7.5 ft. Here some good slow motion video of a GSD doing the palisade. I am not sure of the height of it, but it looks to be maximum. First video is going up and second is the landing...

This is a beautiful GSD btw!

 Excellent!!!

                  More owners should be teaching the 2 meter wall. The excuse of injury is a comlete LIE!!!!!!!!!!!!! a excuse made up because to many pretty dogs could not make the jump(you know who I mean) .


Yes a dog not in condition should not try this jump,but conditioning is the key word here and training. Keep up the good work. And yes you might want to secure your wall better. There needs to be a return to routines that actually test the dog not prance them trhu a test.

If your afraid of the dismount on the down side build a 2 level drop 1 a foot below the top and another 2 foot lower and the drop injury is avoided.

Sure does seem hypocritical, Bob, to preach that dogs shouldn't be judged solely on their looks and then make the inaccurate assumption that a given dog can't perform a given task just because he isn't ugly; don't you think?

by Bob McKown on 14 April 2011 - 20:04

 Most working dogs arent ugly so I guess i,m not getting your concern.

 Keith lets call it like it is, TOO many show line dogs could not cut the physical aspect of the jump and other perfectly good and testing procedures of the test( after all it is suppoesed to be a test) So the test was watered down. the truth may hurt but it is the truth.

 I have seen some show line dogs that can really work but there the exception not the rule.

Uh, yeah...the wall isn't the issue when we talk about show line dogs that can't work; it actually doesn't have much to do with the physical aspect of anything...more of a temperament thing.

Kelly I think that's aewsome.  Also look at him after he jumped down like when are we gonna do it again or what's next mom..............And Bob I agree with you.
