Selection for conformation and conformational homogeneity of litters in the German shepherd dog.

Journal of animal science - 1 Apr 2012

Stock K F, Dammann M, Distl O

Abstract excerpt

Breeding standards of most dog breeds specify tolerable ranges of certain conformation traits. In the German shepherd dog (GSD), current means for withers height (WH) and BW are close to the upper breed limits. Therefore, strategies to avoid a further increase in size and to maximize the proportion of dogs fitting the breeding standard with respect to WH and BW should be compared. Body measurements were available...
