SKC. Basset Fauve de Bretagne

Sad to say I am rather concerned about the breed, albeit based on this entry. The Fauve is supposed to be the shortest backed of the Basset breeds, most were more like a Dachshund in proportions, just far too long and so most are totally off type. Please look at getting the right proportions as a starting point. Very sad to have to withhold the RCC.
