Yes, I see the German Shepherds in show, and their hips just look painful to me! Give me a good, healthy dog any day, those artificially low back ends just cause trouble! And that they have distorted the Bulldog and even some other of the "push-face" dogs so C-section are required SHOULD be a hint that the breed standard need to be modified for healthier dogs!

And while we are at it, stop cropping ears and tails when it serves no other purpose than looks!
