~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Grauf Vom Hausenfleck ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ "The first impression of a good German Shepherd dog is that of a strong, agile, well muscled ani- mal, alert and full of life. It is well balanced, with harmonious development of the forequarter and hindquarter. The dog is longer than tall, deep-bodied, and presents an outline of smooth curves rather than angles. It looks substantial and not spindly, giving the impression, both at rest and in motion, of muscular fitness and nimbleness without any look of clumsiness or soft living. The ideal dog is stamped with the look of quality and nobility--difficult to define, but unmistakable when present."
