If you breed a working line and a show line, you're going to get an unpredictable dog. It might have a sloping back, it might have a high working drive... Basically you're playing dice with the outcome, because both lines are so far apart right now in terms of temperament and posture that they might as well be considered two different breeds.

A working line or a show line? What’s the difference if we are getting a GSD for guard and family pet dog and what type is the best? Where best to buy? Too many Questions.
Bensabelle puppies are show line GSD and they are expensive like Rm4K fixed but are their GSD really great dogs? Can Sifu here help as I don’t know much about GSD but want to buy.

bensabelle are showline only from what i know...... no gsd will protect your family magically mostly need to trained but of course when u buy a dog you wanna make sure it has the genetic to do so. If the parents are playfull 50% chance that the puppy u choose might be playful too but then again how u raise and train your puppy will determine how he turn out to be. For me go for working line GSD.

Thanks alot but honestly, i still blurred. Now I know that the dog's parents are important as good tempered GSD will normally give birth to good tempered offspring and so is healthy to healthy and bla bla bla.

As to temper, isn't the show line GSD shall be less problematic with kids because working line tends to be aggressive even with training as training will only provide us how to handle or tackle the situation with working line GSD. Basic commands must be important so that we can talk to the animal and they can understand our commands; am I right, Sifu?

My favourite is Golden Eagle Salmon formula on plus supermarket food mix.  I get mine from Pet Lovers Centre.

The Dog Whisperer episodes shown now on hyppTV are 2009 to 2010.  Caesar already used positive reinforcement on selected dogs only.  His critics who are not employed by any tv station mostly say it is wrong to use threadmill, wrong to put dog in even big cage, wrong to tug the dog leash a dog to correct it, cruel to kick a dog lightly to the side to snap dogs aggression, wrong to walk a dog less than 1 hour a day and cruel to show who is the boss to the dog.

Whatever we know and learn are from the White and Can't their way be wrong or only applicable to some but not all dogs.

Dogs are animal and so are we and presently, human training are of the western type and not that of Asian esp. of the Chinese of thousands of years experience of try and error. Nowaday, we see children showing disrespectful toward parents and teachers which are cause by western education. Chinese education of "spare the rod, spoil the kid" no longer apply a our LAWS forbid it.
In my opinion, in training Dogs esp. large Dogs, we also may also need to use alittle force or pain to make sure that the dogs stay in line but these do not apply to all dogs as dogs like us do have own strength and weakness. Only when persuasion fail, some of the Caesar gentle side kicks and punches may be needed to ensure that our dogs listen, know their place and stay in line.

Above my opinions only, what say the SIfus?

See, the thing is, dogs aren't humans, don't think like humans, and don't look at punishment the same way as humans. Hitting a dog 2 hours after it pees in the house? The poor dog isn't going to connect 'pee in house' to 'wrong' and 'that's why I got punished'.

Beyond that, some of Cesar's ideas/methods are proven to be wrong. For one, dogs don't see humans as part of their pack, and they sure as hell aren't 'asserting their dominance' over you when they don't listen to you. Hitting a dog is just going to make it wary of you. Hitting a dog when it growls at another dog will probably make it think 'oh, when another dog appears, my master hits me. I must growl at the dog and chase it away'.

TL;DR? Dogs aren't humans. Don't treat them as such.

P.S. Kids definitely need discipline, but caning? The hooligans in my school were caned daily and remained hooligans.

Well, maybe you are right as I am no Dog Expert but then I do know that my son's 2 pet dogs understand me well when I tell them to Stop or Out but they never listen to my wife as she didn't discipline the dogs like I did. Even my grandchildren age 1 and 2 will stop doing what they did when I say stop or no and the same apply to the dogs as well. So, to me, human being and smart animal like GSD do understand us well and if we discipline them well and let them know that we mean buz, then they would obey. Learning or teaching the dogs must be done immediately and not later as even on training children, always at the moment cos later it serves no purpose at all.

Maybe, it's just plain coincidence or luck.

Oyes, when canning is concerned, just one stroke will do cos too many strokes will serve no purpose and that why those hooligans never learn cos too many times and too many canning will only harden the hands and cause no pain. maybe even syok feeling.

I bought a showline pure breed GSD a few months ago and now, he is 7 months old and still I haven't got my MKA cert and the breeder told me that the cert still not received.

Although our GSD is great looking and very big for a 7 months dog but do the cert takes so long to get? When got time, I will try to take a picture of him as I do think him as good looking but wish to have your comment. Thanks for recommendation and advice here before I bought the GSD.
