Ok when I first wanted a GSD I wanted a BIG DOG. Oversized, intimidating and all that. Not aggressive, just intimidating by looks alone. I was a dumb dumb about shepherds.
I still see on this board many who do not care for the "smaller standard size" shepherds. I have a 24" 68-70 lb. female and a 23" 55 lb. female (whom if wasn't sick would probably be between 60-65 lbs.). I absolultely love their size. I wouldn't want anything above the standard and love when I see a female that is the appropriate size.
Now when someone comments on their small size I don't even bother with the gsd standard lesson, I just say "ya, and I like em that way".
So what's your opinions...........How many of you actually prefer a standard size shepherd despite people negative opinions of them because they are not big, mean and bad. Tell us why you prefer that as well.
