This is a dog of lean, elegant and alert appearance. He is higher on the leg and 

 shorter in the body than the English Greyhound. He is not as long in the head but 

 more domed in the skull than the English dog, and seen in profile the head has some 

 resemblance to that of the Jackal. The eyes are large, dark amber in color, and in- 

 telligent in expression. He is rather large in ears, which are folded well down on the 

 neck. He is strong and muscular in neck with hind quarters well developed. The tail 

 is fairly long, fine and carried curved downwards. The coat is smooth, dense and fine.
