In answering your question to how fast the dogs are traveling in their "show gates" SV, AKC, or any thing in between is this:
We have not tested our WGSL boy at his top speed as he is only 11 months old; however, we have clocked our samoyed female (5 years old) at a speed of 8 to 9 miles per hour at he top show gate just before going into a gallop/cantor/full running trot or whatever you want to call it.
We will try to test our young male but usually don't even count anything serious until fully matured; but it has to be at least between 10 and 15 miles per hour. We will see. Interesting question, how do those handlers keep up with these guys?? We will try to test on a 3 wheeler with a speedometer. Usually accurate. Gives you an idea of their abilities. WOW...
And as you have learned thru various discussions on structure that this speed is going to vary from dog to dog depending on their conformation and structure as well as fitness. Again, WOW...
