This dog owns an elegant outline. The skull is moderately narrow between
the ears, with prominent occiput, a decided brow over the eyes, with
long muzzle. The eyes should be dark brown in color, and are full of
animation. Ears small, thin and soft, carried close to the cheeks. The
neck should be slightly arched, but must not be throaty, chest deep and
wide, tail should be carried with a gentle sweep downwards, and well
feathered with straight silky hair. The coat is soft and silky without
curl, and he should have plenty of feather on both fore and hind legs.
