Hind legs: Position when seen from rear, not too close, parallel. Hocks and feet: Turned neither in nor out
Dewclaws: Must be removed

Upper thigh: Rather long, slanting, well muscled. Upper and lower thigh form a distinct angle
Hocks: Strong, distinct angle between lower thigh and rear pastern

Gait - Movement
Ground covering even movement in all gaits. Extending well in front, and good drive from hindquarters. Seen from front and behind limbs move in a straight line when walking or trotting.

Coat
Hair: Medium soft to coarse, profusely long, close fitting, never with a parting, letting the form of the whole body be seen despite the thick undercoat. Straight, slight wave still permitted; forming a mane on neck and chest, specially in males; distinct feathering on front legs and ample breeches on hind legs.

Colour
Lion yellow, red, reddish brown, also sandy (fawn colour, cream colour) and all combinations in between, always with a black mask. Black hair tips are permitted; black must however not determine the dog's basic colour. Lightening up of the basic colour on the underside of the tail, the mane, feathering on front legs and breeches on hind legs must no be so pronounced as to interfere with the harmony of the main colour. A small white patch or stripe on chest and white hair on toes will be tolerated.
