She's got all her field training medals as well though, but most of the show folk don't bother.

Yep.. there's a GSD breeder around here who breeds for show and his dogs are dumber than a box of rocks and very fat and out of shape. American line GSD's are usually terrible anyway.
My buddy has a 6 year old male black Lab who is pretty much an Einstein of dogs.. he uses him for hunting, but last he counted the dog knew over 1800 commands. I just recently got him on the GSD bandwagon and he purchased one from a reputable breeder in Germany. I think we're going to breed my male with her.
