VP1 U-CH Ulk von Katzel @ 7 1/2 months old

Are you thinking of buying him? What are your goals for a GSD?

Katzel · 08-11-2011, 11:15 PM

I actually bred him. His dad is a import titled male from Slovakia and his mom is an import Czech X German import (she's a Karat's Ulk daughter). I'm planning on keeping him if all goes well. Love him to pieces. Superb temperament.

Masculine male with good coat. Ear set is ok...potentially bonnet eared (is the hand in the photo tipping the dog's ear, or is it just like that?). Needs stronger pigment, color is ok, but is likely to fade out significantly, from the way he looks now.

Would prefer more bone and much more pronounced forechest. Wither a bit flat leading into an ok topline. Short and very steep croup. Excessive rear for the front the dog has (lack of balance).

Shoulders are a bit upright, could use a longer upper arm. Set of neck is a bit far forward, and should be a bit higher. Decent underline.

Overall, I would like a dog with more substance and presence. Pretty puppy just the same

Nice puppy, any more pics? I would love to see more. I have to disagree with the ears and other comments.

Yvonne what exactly do you disagree with?
The one ear looks like its still falling over and struggling to stand in the photo and maybe the person is holding it up.
I would be interested to see a head shot to see what exactly is going on with the ear.

If you disagree with what I said, then why don't you post a critique of your own?

Katzel... if you like the dog.....then you should keep him.
Best wishes.

...and that is very good advice-

She asked for opinions. She got some. She won't get any if people criticize those who participate.

I think he is pretty, I am not a conformation judge. I think his stifle is long, tho. But, he may be a sweet dog!
