ok... I was a bit upset and may have used figurative speech. I was referring to the "hop" that seams to be desirable in show GS. I was comparing to "working" GS.
To be clear... what I am upset is breeding to a "look" that is unhealthy or breeding when it is KNOWN the parents carry a gene that will cause a condition that will lead to pain and or death. I am very supportive of ethicial breeders that test and do what is best for the pups
