Although in a full coat, this dog simply could not and should not be overlooked. His coat was harsh, thick and correct with the most amazing pelt. He is a real stallion dog who simply screamed "dog" to me, stunning head and expression, one of those heads you held in your hands and it made the hairs on the back of your neck stand up, yes, this is a real dog. He is easily spanned, although the coat made him look heavy, he is not. He is perfectly balanced. Good, strong, white teeth in correct jaw. Neck flowing into correctly placed shoulders which allowed him to cover the ground effortlessly. Each stride was strong and true, driven by a great rear action which so many lack these days. He reminded me so much of a dog I used to show years ago. The best of ribs leading into a wonderfully strong loin, good level topline and fabulous tail. I was delighted to be able to judge this dog and had no hesitation in giving him his first Dog CC. He is a credit to his breeders/owners
