Color — To be a rich, deep, dark cherry red or dark 

 mahogany color. Rufus red is the color gen- 

 erally spoken of, but very few fanciers have 

 any idea what those words mean. The color 

 should be uniform over head, ears, chest, feet 

 and body; should be very deep, extend well 

 over the hind quarters, and down the sides 

 to the belly color, which is often of a rich 

 golden color on some of the best colored 

 specimens. The different standards call for 

 creamy belly color. The under jaw should be 

 as free from white as possible.
