This puppy took my eye as soon as he entered the ring, such a balanced and well constructed youngster. Pleasing otter like head, with a flat skull and not overdone, dark eye with a keen expression. Excellent front angulation, good length of neck, level topline and enough rear angulation to produce that balanced picture. Narrow and well ribbed back, easily spannable. Tight feet and good lay of pastern, moved out well covering the ground. A very promising youngster who I am sure has a very bright future BPD.
