Breed standards are an outline of the ideal breed specimen. However, they leave a lot of room for interpretation-which can be highly inaccurate if a person does not have depth knowledge of the breeds. Mistaken interpretation results in faulty judging and breeding decisions, causing the breeds to veer away from the ideal dog intended by the breed founders. Using photos of excellent examples of these breeds, this book clearly illustrates the standards from the viewpoint of highly respected judges from the USA and Europe. The objective of this book is to guide judges and breeders toward better judging and breeding decisions through deeper knowledge of the standards.


Rassestandards sind ein Überblick über das ideale Rasseexemplar. Sie lassen jedoch viel Interpretationsspielraum-was sehr ungenau sein kann, wenn eine Person keine fundierten Kenntnisse über die Rassen hat. Eine falsche Interpretation führt zu fehlerhaften Beurteilungs- und Zuchtentscheidungen, was dazu führt, dass die Rassen vom idealen Hund abweichen, der von den Rassegründern beabsichtigt wurde. Anhand von Fotos hervorragender Exemplare dieser Rassen veranschaulicht dieses Buch anschaulich die Standards aus Sicht hoch angesehener Richter aus den USA und Europa. Ziel ist es, Richter und Züchter durch tiefere Kenntnis der Standards zu besseren Richter- und Zuchtentscheidungen zu führen.

About the Author
McDermid, Paula Jean: - Ms. McDermid acquired her first Australian Shepherds in 1980 and has been devoted to the breed since that time. Under the kennel name Bainbridge, she produced many champions, obedience, herding and agility titled dogs. She trained dogs in rally and tracking, and her experiences in all these dog sports provided her with a broad basis for sound judging decisions of this athletic breed. She understands from experience the physical form that is needed to maintain function and has witnessed the evolution of breed type over the past 40 years. Ms. McDermid's success as a breeder earned Bainbridge Aussies the Hall of Fame designation from the Australian Shepherd Club of America. She began judging Australian Shepherd conformation in 1986 at Australian Shepherd Club of America specialty shows. In 1995, she became the second Australian Shepherd Breeder-Judge to be approved by the American Kennel Club (AKC) and began judging Australian Shepherd conformation at AKC all-breed shows in the United States. Over the next 10 years, Ms. McDermid was approved by the AKC to judge conformation for eight additional herding breeds. Ms. McDermid judges Fédération Cynologique Internationale (FCI)-sanctioned shows in Europe; and American Kennel Club and Australian Shepherd Club of America shows in the United States.
