 whose nasal bone is higlier at tlie nose 

 than at the stop — a feature not in- 

 frequently seen in pointers.

 from Avithers to x)oint where chest and 

 brisket meet. 

 4. Elbow. — The joint at the top of the fore- 

 arm. 



Elhoics Out or ''Out at Elbows.''— Thiii 

 term defines itself. Bulldogs and 

 Dachshunde are desirable with elbows 

 so shaped, but it may occur as a fault 

 through weakness. 



Expression. — The expression of a dog is 

 largely but not wholly determined by 

 the size, angular position, and degree 

 of prominence of the eye. For instance 

 in a St. Bernard the eye is small, some- 

 what sunken, showing a little haw. 

 This gives a dignified and rather be- 

 nevolent expression. "Collie expres- 

 sion" depends largely on the angle at 

 which eyes are set to each other.
