He told me something that gladdened my heart. The test included all the aspects of the AKC temperament test (gunshots, aloof stranger, friendly stranger, aggressive stranger, etc.) This was followed by testing the dog's confidence in traffic ( jogger passes, then a bicycle with the rider ringing the bell, followed by a car, toooting its horn, ) and in a mob of noisy strangers. They pressed close to the dog and were hooting and hollering as if their favourite team had just scored a goal.
This test is called the TEC (Temperament Evaluation Certificate), and will now be MANDATORY before a Canadian GSD can receive the Excellent Select title!
Way to go, GSDCC!!
He also said he likes the more moderately structured dogs, and was hoping to see more of them in the show ring. He owns a stud that is a champion, and a mix of German and American lines.
If only my German/American girl had turned out as nice as Fury!

And that dog does look "Hunky" to me too! LOL
OK, humor me, I want to see if I am correct, lol .... I just entered the same photo where I changed the Height x Width: 400 x 551. Sunsilver's download showed... 800 x 581 ....
Does it now look better to you?
*Edited.... I made the same changes using Sunsilvers *new cropped* picture...
Here it is again, sized h x w, 316 x 400, to see if it looks correct on my iPhone....

laptop monitor (never a smartphone). Bee's photo makes him look longer
and short legged.
He is nicer than I usually expect from Canadian SL.
Not a pedigree I'm at all familiar with, altho' I see Eko-Lans in there.
Congrats on the CH.

I was going to say: that TEC description sounds uncannily like
some stuff I've got on what is expected in BH ?
