FIG. 15. Cor¬ 
rect hindquarters 
with the correct 
angulation at the 
stifle and the 
hock, the latter let 
down sufficiently 
to give the proper 
resiliency to the 
pushing power. 
FIG. 16. Incor¬ 
rect hindquarters, 
too straight in an¬ 
gulation with ab¬ 
normally weak 
hocks. The latter 
fault is very rare in 
this breed but does 
occur, and is usu¬ 
ally the result of a 
rachetic condition 
in the individual. 
"FI 
FIG. 17. Hind¬ 
quarters in which 
the angle at the 
stifle is not bad, 
but in which the 
hock is let down 
too much, making 
them cowhocked. 
Dogs with this 
fault always have 
a poor and power¬ 
less stride.
