Dogs and All about Them

(Many
of
the
finest
specimens
have
a
"swine
mouth,"
which
is
very
objectionable,
but
it
is
not
so
great
an
objection
as
the
protrusion
of
the
under
jaw.)
EYES--Set
wide
apart,
large,
full,
round,
bright,
expressive
of
great
determination,
intelligence
and
dignity;
set
low
and
prominent
in
front
of
the
head;
colour
a
rich
dark
hazel.
EARS--Pendulous,
set
well
back,
wide
apart
and
low
on
the
skull,
hanging
close
to
the
cheek,
with
a
very
slight
projection
at
the
base,
broad
at
the
junction
of
the
head
and
tapering
almost
to
a
point,
the
fore
part
of
the
ear
tapering
very
little,
the
tapering
being
mostly
on
the
back
part,
the
fore
part
of
the
ear
coming
almost
straight
down
from
its
junction
with
the
head
to
the
tip.
They
should
harmonise
in
colour
with
the
body
colour.
In
the
case
of
a
pepper
dog
they
are
covered
with
a
soft,
straight,
brownish
hair
(in
some
cases
almost
black).
In
the
case
of
a
mustard
dog
the
hair
should
be
mustard
in
colour,
a
shade
darker
than
the
body,
but
not
black.
All
should
have
a
thin
feather
of
light
hair
starting
about
two
inches
from
the
tip,
and
of
nearly
the
same
colour
and
texture
as
the
topknot,
which
gives
the
ear
the
appearance
of
a
distinct
point.
The
animal
is
often
one
or
two
years
old
before
the
feather
is
shown.
The
cartilage
and
skin
of
the
ear
should
not
be
thick,
but
rather
thin.
