Judges also sometimes comment on above and below jaw strength (I still don't know how to spot the difference, other than loose lips), it might be connected, I mean the strength, to length and depth ?!
I wish some one can explain what is meant by strong jaw

Type and expression is difficult to explain, Ibrahim.
Siblings may have the same type because of genetics, but they can have a different expression.
It´s about the whole dog, including it´s attitude, a male may look like a bull or like an ox, the dog may be outgoing, timid, strong, confident, shy....
you can´t measure it, but all together is the expression.
