There are still some very nice working line German Shepherd Dogs, but yes, there has developed a split between working dogs and show dogs which is a shame, but after years of going in the wrong direction, I would say that the show dog lines are improving as well regarding health and temperament, and following the original breed standard, at least here in Europe. So, I think the GSD will come out alive and kicking, and as "Love is a..." said, many pro handlers just don't want to deal with Malinois. I know of experienced military dog handlers that went from GSD to Malinois and straight back to GSD again. It is not a dog for everyone. But speaking as an owner of the sibling to the Malinois, the Groenendael, I agree that what is happening to the working dog/protection breeds is going in the wrong direction. My first dog was a breed typical Tervueren, a working dog, but try to find one now and it is near impossible because the Tervueren and Groenendael in many lines, particularly the French, have been breed for beauty. From a theoretical point of view, one could also say that the Malinois working dogs are also being bred away from the breed standard, but in the opposite direction of the Groenendael and Tervueren, and of all the four varieties it is probably the Laeknois that matches the original breed standard the closest. I would love to see more focus on temperament and getting the Groenendael and Tervueren as a whole back to the working dog standard. They were not bred to be pretty, couch potato family dogs and the breeding in that direction is ruining them. I hate that I have to do such intensive research to find a good Groenendael or Tervueren, and to be honest, the dog I have now is too soft according to the breed standard. For the Malinois, if it were up to me, it would be split in two - a hard working line and a breed standard working line, but unfortunately I cannot swing a magic wand and make all breeders and show judges to what I want them to. For the Laekenois, well, maybe the fact that they are the least popular of the Belgian Shepherd Dogs is actually not such a negative thing for the breed after all.

1500s-1600s: Martin Luther's 'Protestant' Reformation begins in 1517 in the town of Wittenberg and casts Europe into decades of religious and political turmoil. The Thirty Years War, which dragged in both Sweden and France, reduces the power of the German Reich. The Reinheitsgebot, Germany's Beer Law was drawn up in 1516.

1600s-1800s: After the devastation of the Thirty Years War, the following period of 'Enlightenment' includes the work of Bach (1604-1673), H«ndel (1685-1759) and Beethoven (1770-1827) in music; Goethe (1749-1832), Schiller (1759-1805) and the Brothers Jacob (1785-1863) and Wilhelm (1786-1859) Grimm in literature; Immanuel Kant (1724-1804), Georg Wilhelm Friedrich Hegel (1770-1831) and Arthur Schopenhauer (1788-1860) in philosophy. The state of Brandenburg-Prussia increases its power under Frederick the Great (ruled 1740-86) and again after the defeat of Napoleon in 1815. At the Congress of Vienna Germany is reconstituted into a confederation of 35 states with its Reichstag in Frankfurt.

1848-1900: Social unrest sweeps across Europe and much of Germany in 1848 as the growing number of industrial workers and the middle class agitate for social, political and economic change. The Communist Manifesto is first published by Karl Marx and Friedrich Engels. Otto von Bismarck (1815-98) as chancellor of Prussia leads Prussia into conflict with Denmark to annex Schleswig-Holstein in 1864 and fights wars with Austria in 1866 and France in 1870 leading to the incorporation of Hannover, Hesse-Kassel and Alsace and Lorraine into the 'Second Reich' of the Prussian state. By 1871 Berlin is the capital of the first truly unified German state. The Social Democratic Party (SDP) is founded in 1875. In 1876 the four-stroke internal combustion engine was invented by Nikolaus August Otto and in 1887 Karl Benz produces the first automobile. In 1886 Friedrich Nietzsche publishes Beyond Good & Evil. Germany begins a period of rapid industrialization and militarization and acquires overseas colonies in both Africa and Asia.

1900-1919: Europe is divided by the opposing alliances of Germany, Austria and Hungary on the one hand and France and Russia on the other. War in Europe seems inevitable fuelled by a growing arms race on the continent and the rush to grab colonies overseas. World War I (1914-18) is sparked by the assassination of the Austrian Archduke Franz Ferdinand in Sarajevo in 1914. Germany attacks the Franco-Russian alliance bringing Britain into the war when German forces enter Belgium - a British ally. Millions die in the horror of the trenches in France and Belgium before the war ends and the Treaty of Versailles in 1919 imposes harsh war reparations on Germany, the loss of some of its territory and the abdication of Kaiser. The Russian Revolution of 1917 inspires an unsuccessful socialist revolution in Germany in 1918, its leaders Karl Liebknecht and Rosa Luxemberg are killed.

1919-1933: The Weimar Republic (1919-33) - a coalition of left and center parties led by the SPD's Friedlich Ebert until 1925 and then by Field Marshal Paul von Hindenburg governs an increasingly polarized nation against the backdrop of economic hardship and hyperinflation. In 1923 Adolf Hitler (1889-1945) and his National Socialist German Workers' Party (NSDAP) attempt a a putsch in Munich to overthrow the republic. Hitler is imprisoned for two years and writes Mein Kampf while in jail. Upon his release Hitler runs against von Hindenburg in the 1932 presidential election gaining 37% of the popular vote.

1933-45: In 1933 Hitler is appointed chancellor and seizes power as Führer after the Reichstag in Berlin is burnt down in mysterious circumstances the same year. Hitler's National Socialists (Nazis) take control at local levels, outlawing trade unions and other political parties and set in motion the persecution of Jews, homosexuals and other 'non-Aryans'. Volkswagen cars go into production in 1938 as the German economy improves in the pre-war period of rearmament and central planning. Austria is occupied by German forces in the Anschlüss of 1938 followed by the annexation of Sudetenland (from Czechoslovkia) after British PM Neville Chamberlain signs the Munich Agreement supposedly guaranteeing "peace in our time" in 1938. In 1939 Hitler signed a non-aggression treaty with Stalin's Russia and in August that year German forces invade Poland dragging both Britain and France into World War II. The German army quickly occupy Holland, Belgium and France leaving only Britain and its colonies facing the Tripartite Axis of Germany, Italy and Japan. Hitler's decision to invade Russia in 1941 and the Japanese attack on the US at Pearl Harbor is the beginning of the end for Nazi aggression. From 1942 the Nazis embark on the 'Final Solution' - a systematic attempt to exterminate Europe's Jewish population in SS (Schutzstaffel)-run concentration camps. Defeats on the Russian Eastern Front, in North Africa, Italy and finally th
