Color: Black, rusty black, grizzle with white feet. White dogs with
reddish brown patches and self-colored yellow-brown ones are highly
appreciated, but all white is a fault.
Height: 20 in.
Weight: 56 lbs.
This dog has a rather long body, which is well covered with thick,
abundant coat. The skull is broad and domed; ears erect; eyes large,
brown and intelligent; chest narrow and deep. His tail is sometimes
docked, but when not is well coated and curled over the back. The coat
on the head is short, but on the body should be long, thick and dense,
and never wavy, and he should have a very dense undercoat and a distinct
frill.
