a) sable smooth bitch

b) tri rough bitch

Good overall balance and breed type. Good feminine head in profile showing correct wedge and parallel planes. Good arch of neck with correct head carriage. Line from ears drops
in front of legs. Collar pattern could give
illusion of straight front

Overall good balance and breed type with a
fitting coat which is not overgroomed. Lovely femine head that fits the body. Though not in true profile showing still shows an acceptable wedge and pleasing expression. Good arch
of neck flowing into shoulders.

c) 9 mo. sable rough bitch

d) blue merle smooth male

Nine month sable rough bitch puppy.
Balanced and typey puppy except for a somewhat short neck. Despite her short neck her head is still well in front of front assembly. Excellent head piece showing correct wedge
and parallel planes. Slight rise on rump
due to puppy coat.

Good overall balance and breed type. Head is definitely masculine and shows parallel planes. Good arch of neck sloping well into the shoulders, with good head carriage. Slight rise over the loin noticible. When com pared to the following Blue Rough (or any Rough)
might look longer bodied due to coat difference.

 

e) blue merle rough male
 

Overall good balance and breed type. Correct head and pleasing expression. Blending of white collar and white leg could create illusion of incorrect front assembly. When compared to
previous Blue Smooth (or any Smooth) might look shorter in body due to difference in coat.
