For those who need an extra incentive to train — I found this article in the NY Times from June 11, 2011.

$230,000 for the 2009 German Sieger Show V75 dog and he has her spayed because he’s too busy to breed her? What a nut.
They were talking about this at schutzhund training last night. I went and looked up the female, it is “Julia von der Liebeswarte” she is a schH3 with normal elbows and a ZW of 76. She looks very feminine. If I was going to go for a “trophy” dog I would get a male.
I am in the wrong business!
