Hi,
We have been training GSDs in our club for sometime now. Beside GSD, we have some other breeds too. Initially we only have the showline to train. Some of the GSDs that we have trained are fantastic guard dog at home. But they can never able to do well in OB trails let alone schutzhund.
Lately we met some German, Italian, Finnish, Belgian and English. We asked why the dogs they are selling to the Malaysian police are so much like the showline GSD and not working line? They can only agreed with one thing, quality. They only select those dogs can withstand the test of any trails for breeding regardless show or working line. Most Malaysian breeders breed GSDs that cannot withstand any test at all because to them quality means beauty.
This is one of the reason why you can't find many GSDs in any OB trails although GSD is a very popular breed in Malaysia. Many breeders often said they GSDs are tought to do basic obedience and they are not train for any trails. These European added that most of the GSD that competed in the dogs show in
Malaysia are only good to run in the showring. Malaysian has been breeding GSD for many years now and most of the breeders are in the present GSD club. Why no improvement previously? What make them think that they can improve now? Why none of the Malaysia showline can compete in Germany?
We train our GSD as hobby. We are serious in our hobby and this is why we asked the expert to teach us, locally or overseas. Although our dogs are fr some superd European parentage, we will never breed any of our dogs until they have proven themselves in OB or schutzhund trails not only showring.
Jesstin,
Finally you are talking some sense. So i guess it is agreed that not just working line is fit for sch and ob trail, showline are equally good for it. Now we come back to quality and showline evolution in msia. First of all, we do have sg or v rated showline back in the days but not at the amount we have now. Many years ago this sg or v rated dogs belong to rich msian but now any average income ppl with passion for it can compete in shows. Studs are available here. We have their breed survey report to view due to internet german translation now. I dont know what you are used to last time but we need to move forward and quit whining. And most importantly, these showring gsd that you see are previously competing in europe before arriving here. And some are highly placed too. So this contradict your statement again. Now to answer you why no improvement previously, do you know how long this gsd chapter have been empty or inactive already?? This gsd msia only manage to gain momentum a few months ago due to a group of gsd lovers. We wants to implement breed survey, gun test, sch and etc. That is why we got working line people to sit in as well. Mr Azman is in, if you know him since you said you are working line too. If there is not sincerity, then why all the trouble?
I have been asking you for your details many times now. But you didnt pm or even post your details here. You can let me know which club you said you trained for or your name and location. This is not to belittle you or anything, this is to gather as many gsd ppl we have to move forward. With all your post above, you are really not helping but only giving out what we can read from any gsd website. So the meeting is on 17th, you can still voice out now. It seems that workingline msia went to compete in Wusv but it seems they did not complete it too. And it is not really hard to send dogs to germany sv ring, both parent must be sch and hip/elbow xray only. we want to COMPLETE in 1st ring NOT just participation. This is my opinion. Look at China now, they have Germany best dogs but yet they are NOT sending dogs to compete in sv ring. They are surely rich ppl so money is not a problem. This comes back to years of history germans have on breeding. Italy and France is slowly sending their homegrown dogs to germany now. But this is not after many trial and errors. Showring is not just running around in circle like you think. you think millions of people paid big money to watch westminister show to JUST see dogs running in circle?? I hope you will try to think for a while before posting again and not let whoever cloud your judgement on TODAY 'S CURRENT SHOWLINE GSD.
