Greyhound-like ears, and dark, elliptically-shaped eyes.
Chest, narrow and deep, with great depth of rib behind the elbows, one of the most striking features of the breed.
Neck, very muscular, rather long and deep where it joins the shoulders, and these ought to be fairly oblique, but well clothed with muscles.
A long, straight back and broad loins, with powerful quarters, long thighs and low-placed, strong hocks are counted points for the show bench. The hind limbs, in relation to the body, are placed very far back, only just appearing to be under it at the lower part of the extremities when the dog is standing still.
Tail must be heavily feathered, long, and carried down, the so-called "gay" carriage being a drawback.
Fore-Limbs.—Good fore-limbs are a sine qua non. The arms should be well muscled, and the forearms long, straight, broadening out as they approach the arms, and tapering from a trifle above the knees until the feet are reached. These ought to be long, toes well arched, and close.
Colour.—Grey, or orange patches on a white ground.
Coat.—Short and smooth on the head, ears, and fore-limbs. The frill on neck should be abundant and somewhat curly. That covering the head, body, tail, and hind-quarters, long and silky.
Height.—Dogs from 28 inches, and bitches from 26 inches.
