Dogs and All about Them
·
Robert Leighton

The
muzzle,
or
foreface,
is
broad,
and
the
skull
proportionately
narrow,
so
that
the
whole
head,
when
viewed
from
above
and
in
front,
has
the
appearance
of
equal
breadth
throughout.
LENGTH
OF
HEAD--The
entire
length
of
head
varies
with
the
height
of
the
dog,
13
ins.
from
the
tip
of
the
nose
to
the
back
of
the
occiput
is
a
good
measurement
for
a
dog
of
32
ins.
at
the
shoulder.
The
length
from
the
end
of
the
nose
to
the
point
between
the
eyes
should
be
about
equal,
or
preferably
of
greater
length
than
from
this
point
to
the
back
of
the
occiput.
SKULL--The
skull
should
be
flat
rather
than
domed,
and
have
a
slight
indentation
running
up
the
centre,
the
occipital
peak
not
prominent.
There
should
be
a
decided
rise
or
brow
over
the
eyes,
but
no
abrupt
stop
between
them.
FACE--The
face
should
be
chiselled
well
and
foreface
long,
of
equal
depth
throughout,
and
well
filled
in
below
the
eyes
with
no
appearance
of
being
pinched.
MUSCLES
OF
THE
CHEEK--The
muscles
of
the
cheeks
should
be
quite
flat,
with
no
lumpiness
or
cheek
bumps,
the
angle
of
the
jaw-bone
well
defined.
LIPS--The
lips
should
hang
quite
square
in
front,
forming
a
right
angle
with
the
upper
line
of
foreface.
