BREED SRANDARD

 

BREEDSTANDARD FLAT COATED RETRIEVER

Ozzy gets to have the Flat - breed standars in his info since Zebbe has the Rottweiler breedstandard in his info. And Ozzy is a mixed breed between the two breeds.

 


General Appearance

A bright, active dog of medium size with an intelligent expression, showing power without lumber, and raciness without weediness.

Characteristics

Generously endowed with natural gundog ability, optimism and friendliness demonstrated by enthusiastic tail action.

Temperament

Confident and kindly

Head and Skull

Head, long and nicely moulded. Skull, flat and moderately broad with a slight stop between eyes, in no way accentuated, avoiding a down or a dish-faced appearance. Nose of good size with open nostrils. Jaws long and strong, capable of carrying a hare or pheasant.

Eyes

Medium size, dark brown or hazel, with a very intelligent expression (a round prominent eye highly undesirable). Not obliquely placed.

Ears

Small and well set on, close to side of head.

Mouth

Jaws strong with a perfect, regular and complete scissor bite, i.e. upper teeth closely overlapping lower teeth and set square to the jaws. Teeth sound and strong.

Neck

Head well set in neck, the latter reasonable long and free from throatiness, symmetrically set and obliquely placed in shoulders, running well into the back to allow for easily seeking the trail.

Forequarters

Chest deep and fairly broad, with well defined brisket, on which elbows should move cleanly and evenly. Forelegs straight, with bone of good quality throughout.

Body

Foreribs fairly flat. Body well ribbed up showing a gradual spring and well arched in centre but rather lighter towards quarters. Loin short and square. Open couplings highly undesirable.

Hindquarters

Muscular. Moderate bend of stifle and hock, latter well let down. Should stand true all round. Cowhocks highly undesirable.

Feet

Round and strong with toes close and well arched. Soles thick and strong.

Tail

Short, straight and well set on, gaily carried, but never much above level of back.

Gait/Movement

Free and flowing, straight and true as seen from front and rear

Coat

Dense, of fine to medium texture and good quality, as flat as possible. Legs and tail well feathered. Full furnishings on maturity complete the elegance of a good dog.

Colour

Black or liver only.
