          or stood. Ideally in this position, when viewed from the side, the front legs, chest
          through the head and ears should form a vertical line and at the same time the back
          should arch in a quarter circle from the back of the neck to the tail, with the belly
          and chest well tucked up. The head should be well rounded although not necessarily
          as bold in does. The ears should be carried erect and should be roughly the same
          length as the distance from the base of the ears to the nose although again the

         exhibit. The colour to match the body where appropriate, otherwise to pattern.   
   
   5.   Eyes - Bright and very bold, well positioned on upper side of head.  The colour in Red
         Eyed Whites to be as near blood red as possible and in Blue Eyed Whites to be as
         deep a blue as possible. Other colours as per the normal colour of the exhibit
         depicted.

    6.  Condition - The exhibit should be in a perfect state of health and bodily condition
         free from all soiling. The coat should reflect the overall good health of the exhibit,
         which should appear alert, sprightly and vigorous.
