conformation critiques welcome - Page 2

I like her a lot! In fact, if her tempermant is good, I would love to purchase her. I love her mask, dark coloration (she will get even darker with age) and the way her hips are sloped (but not too much). She is only a year and four months old. Based on my little bit of experience she will fill out as she gets older and muscle up. It is good she isn't heavy at this age (easier on hips/elbows). If she were my dog (you may already be doing this), I would get her in pond or pool swimming as much as possible before hip x-rays and have it done at end of summer. Swimming will tighten her hips up and build muscle if done on regular basis. I would be willing to bet she is extremely athletic and can run like a deer. She is a real beauty!

If she's anything like her sister, she's extremely athletic! I call Eska 'my kangaroo'! When waiting to come into the house, she jumps straight up in the air, and there are nose prints and paw prints 6 1/2 feet up on the patio door to show how high she can jump!

I am glad my property has a 6 ft.high board fence around it to keep her confined.

SrfWheat,
She is actually for sale :) I'm having him xrays in the next 2 weeks, sent to Germany for Astamp, probably ofa for preliminary eval.

Thank you all! I can't believe my post is still on the front page lol. Ibrihim, thank you for a detailed critique.
