HEAD
AND
EARS--The
Skull
should
be
flat
and
moderately
narrow,
and
gradually
decreasing
in
width
to
the
eyes.
Not
much
"stop"
should
be
apparent,
but
there
should
be
more
dip
in
the
profile
between
the
forehead
and
top
jaw
than
is
seen
in
the
case
of
a
Greyhound.
The
Cheeks
must
not
be
full.
The
Ears
should
be
V-shaped
and
small,
of
moderate
thickness,
and
dropping
forward
close
to
the
cheek,
not
hanging
by
the
side
of
the
head
like
a
Foxhound's.
The
Jaw,
upper
and
under,
should
be
strong
and
muscular;
should
be
of
fair
punishing
strength,
but
not
so
in
any
way
to
resemble
the
Greyhound
or
modern
English
Terrier.
There
should
not
be
much
falling
away
below
the
eyes.
This
part
of
the
head,
should,
however,
be
moderately
chiselled
out,
so
as
not
to
go
down
in
a
straight
line
like
a
wedge.
The
Nose,
towards
which
the
muzzle
must
gradually
taper,
should
be
black.
The
Eyes
should
be
dark
in
colour,
small,
and
rather
deep
set,
full
of
fire,
life,
and
intelligence;
as
nearly
as
possible
circular
in
shape.
The
Teeth
should
be
as
nearly
as
possible
level,
i.e.,
the
upper
teeth
on
the
outside
of
the
lower
teeth.
NECK--Should
be
clean
and
muscular,
without
throatiness,
of
fair
length,
and
gradually
widening
to
the
shoulders.
SHOULDERS
AND
CHEST--The
Shoulders
should
be
long
and
sloping,
well
laid
back,
fine
at
the
points,
and
clearly
cut
at
the
withers.
The
Chest
deep
and
not
broad.
