German Shepherd - Correct way to Stand

What is all this fuss about teaching me to stand "correctly"? Patricia and John just don't get it! They lift my chest to make my front legs stand straight down and then pull my one leg back. What a business! They are not good at all this positioning (both slow learners). I don't like being pulled and pushed. It cheeses me off so I put my ears back to show I am not pleased.

OK here is the truth. I already know how to stand "correctly". It is natural for me to stand this way. Have a look at this:

This is me, standing by the pool. I was not placed in this position. I just stood this way because I like it. (By the way Peter at my Club has already told John quite often that standing like this is natural for us German Shepherds. Perhaps John has at last got the message!)
(OK - I will put my back leg further back ...............  if I feel like it)
