I noticed a lot of german shepherds today have roached backs instead of straight slants. That's not a good trend to be starting. Some of them look like they must be in pain or they are at least going to be in pain as they get older. Looking into it I find the breeders did this on purpose for a better gait, but most are not doing it anymore because of the back problems. Well duh, "banana-back" german shepherds have back problems, any idiot should have known that before breeding them.
