Was her hair trimmed?  I would wait it out, it is not disqualifiying in teh SV standard anymore and you can show her there. Do the Health Clearances, Working Titles and by the Iceland will be on board witht he SV Rules and you can show and KKL her. No worries.....................................

Looking at her head, it would appear she has "length"  around the ears. Though hard to see, I suspect a long stock coat. It may be that  noone actually checked for the existance of an undercoat, but rather simply assumed given she has a long coat (irrelevent to the judge, still disqualified on coat length).

I would tend to agree with Chris and Cate, she would appear to have an undercoat and will soon be eligable.

Don't pay any attention to handlers at ringside.  It is a common tactic to psych you out by talking garbage about your dog.  If you don't believe me go to a George Alston handlers seminar.  I would wait until the SV changes it's rules next year before showing her again.  In fact that is exactly what I am waiting for on my own girl!

Where can I learn more about this new SV rules. And why are they changing it?

Escobar,

the change of regulations will take place next year. At the SV delegates meeting in May, it was decided to reintegrate the long stock coats. They will be shown as a variety, and breeders will be able to get breed surveys on them. How all this will play out remains to be seen. That is all that is known so far.

Chris is best at knowing these things I am a working breeder not much in to conformation but she looks more like a plush coat to me if that is correct ...a part down the back is a long coat was what was told to me and I do not see that in the picture.  Marlene

IMO the "parting" is something of a red herring really, the longer the coat the greater the tendency to part down the back.  I have certainly seen a long stock coat (which i believe is defined as having an undercoat) with a parting down the back and somewhat wavy towards the croup.

Well for what its worth I think she is beautiful!! She looks like a long stock coat in the pics and I would be very surprised if she had no undercoat as mentioned above.

Sorry, I wasn't able to view the pic first, I was at work they always screw up our pc ov er there. She looks plush coat, quite nice, who ever said during the show that she has no undercoat had to be smoking something. She is actually quite good looking. Sorry for my first comment I couldn't view the pics at first. Good look with her I am glad the rules are changing I love long coats :)

When she sheds her coat each year doesn't it come out in clumps?? like on her loin to begin with then going back across her rear thigh and such??   Well, if so that is undercoat.  Which means that the judge was mistaken. I would apply to have her re-evaluated and reinstated.  Don't know what disqualifications are listed in the standard there, but that seems like an odd thing to pull a dog in the ring with.  As others have suggested she may have been out of coat, and thus lacking AT THAT MOMENT but that's not the same as having none.

  You may say why bother, just breed her and go on from there... but unless you have it removed from the record others will remember her only as the dog that was disqualified.  Take the trouble to get her name cleared and the opinion of the 1st judge either overturned, or perhaps supported.
