Legs.—Good legs are most essential; front legs should be straight and strong, hind legs well crooked, and both should be covered with strong, compact muscles, well developed; the elbow- and hock-joints should be hinged long and set straight with sides of body.
Feet.—With surface enough to sustain the weight, but not too large; round and cat-like; pads full and tough; nails short and thick, with plenty of hair between toes.
Tail.—Set on well up, and should taper to a decided point; the straighter it is, the better. It should be carried low, and the action should be free.
Coat.—Fairly dense, and not too soft.
Color.—Liver and white, black and white, orange and white, whole black, or whole liver, this being the order of preference.
