Absolutely gorgeous head. Very nice coat without being excessive. Lovely pasterns and tight feet. Straight on looking at this dog I can’t find anything I’d change. Incredible balance from the side. Arm is under the shoulder. If I’m being picky maybe a little less slope in the croup." "A well-balanced, mature dog of good type, presenting a clean outline with correct proportions and moderate, functional angulation. The head is pleasing and well developed, showing a correct wedge shape with a soft, intelligent expression, good ear set, and a strong, refined muzzle. Neck is of good length and flows smoothly into well-laid shoulders, with a firm, level topline maintained through a well-sprung rib cage carried well back and a strong, moderate loin. Forequarters are sound with good return of upper arm and a developed forechest, matched by a strong, well-muscled rear with correct bend of stifle and well-let-down hocks. Stands on good bone and compact feet, and is presented in correct adult coat and condition."
