Interesting to see a showdog in slow motion

That was a cool video. You can really see that angulation that people talk about. There were certain parts of the vid where you can see the dog actually standing on it's hocks, that actually looks painful to me, but I don't profess to be an expert in this area.

I've seen that before. Difficult to watch. Makes me sad.

And at some point, you can see one of the back feet dragging the ground. Looks terrible.

Isn't this the one that was circulating before to show good movement?

to me, that is beautiful

. I really see nothing attractive about the other video.

The first video is weird. The dogs are not even gaiting so I'm not sure what I'm even supposed to be seeing/evaluating.

In the first video, the back foot pushes off sideways, almost rotating the back leg. Second video, beautiful and natural

Yes but you're looking at two totally different types of movement. The dogs in the first video are not gaiting, the dog in the second video is gaiting. I'm not saying one is better or worse, but personally can't compare them because they're not showing the same type of movement. I have no idea how the top dogs gait and the bottom dog pace. The top dogs are also restrained and pulling into collars; the bottom dog is gaiting free. How the dog is moving and whether it is being restrained does effect what the movement looks like.
