General Appearance.—Strong, compact, cobby dog, profusely coated all over; moves bear-like.
Head.—Skull capacious, rather square; parts over eyes well arched; the whole well covered with hair. Jaw fairly long and square. Stop slightly defined. Eyes in dark blue should be dark brown; in lighter colors they will follow them, and where white predominates a wall eye is typical. Nose black and fairly large. Teeth strong, firm, and even. Ears medium, heavy, and carried close.
Neck and Shoulders.—Neck long, arched, graceful, well coated; shoulders sloping, so that the dog is lower here than at hind quarters.
Fore Legs.—Straight, plenty of bone, not “leggy,” well coated.
Feet.—Round, large, toes arched, pads hard.
