Modern Dogs. 



Markings. Clearly defined. The muzzle or mask, 

 ears, moles on cheeks, thumb-mark or diamond on 

 forehead, back-trace should be as black as possible. 



Mask. The mask should be black. The more 

 intense and well defined it is the better. 



Wrinkles. Large and deep. 



Trace. A black line extending from the occiput 

 to the tail. 



Tail. Curled tightly as possible over the hip. 

 The double curl is perfection. 



Coat. Fine, smooth, soft, short and glossy, 

 neither hard nor woolly. 



Colour. Silver or apricot-tawn. Each should be 

 decided, to make the contrast complete between the 

 colour and the trace and the mask.
