Hello,
On request of Marjolein I have agreed to answer questions about the exterior of the Dutch Sheperd.
My name is Mieke van Viegen-Rappange. I am a judge for the Dutch Sheperd and three other sheperd breeds on dogshows.
I own Dutch sheperd myself for about 30 years now. The first three Dogs i owned where long haired and nowaday I own a ten year old short haired Dutch Sheperd named Maartje.
With all my dogs i have attended obedience trainging and agility. I have trained tracking&rescue with Maartje. Also I have trained Maartje to work with a flock of about 350 sheep. Maartje is also a dogshow champion.
Should you have any questions about the exterior of the Dutch sheperd, please let me know.
Kind regards
Mieke

Yay! and Welcome!! Since you offered, can you tell me or maybe post a picture of what the outside of a DS is supposed to look like (I would prefer a picture so I can compare Gwen to it :dswink" ) I have seen so many different body types I am rather confused about what they should look like.
Glad you are here.

Hey Marjolein!
There are 2 of us on the forum- Christie Meyer, that's me and I posted the pics of Willow in the conformation section. I am meaning to get a few more. There is also Kristie Elliott who posted in this thread that she would like to see a pic of a correct DS so that she can compare her personal dog to it. I think that Mieke was trying to post the one here for Kristie E.
Thanks for offering to help though. I just want to see it get post to the rightplace for the right person

Yes, we do don't we? But at least we know who we are!!!
I haven't post Gwen's pics in the topic yet cause I don't have any that I think can be critiqued. I am working on that this weekend (along with some other tasks for GWen
)
