Slightly arched neck into well laid shoulders and correct depth of keel giving adequate ground clearance. Well ribbed, short strong loin. Strong hind quarters with good turn of stifle. Stood true with legs straight and parallel. Unfortunately, this lad did not like the flooring but I saw enough to see his true movement. Carrying a good harsh jacket. RBD
