He is a fine looking little Lad and he is looking well, looks to be in fine condition certainly not too fat or thin just right and he has a nice coat as well, Good luck with him

I really really like him Abrahim, everything about him, and I am picky!! He is the same age as my pup, do you know what he weighs? Just curious.

I got Quazar weighed today and he was 54 lbs.

He looks to have good bone, a nice shoulder, maybe a tad short in the forearm. His thigh is long but his rear does not appear to be over angulated. I like his head, expression and ears. Nice neck, chest and topline. Very shiny coat, he looks to be in good condition. He looks broad across the chest, a good solid looking dog. Very nice.

Hi Ibrahim,

To me ,for his age he looks super and to top it up,he's got some excellent
working bloodlines. I 'm convinced after seeing his pedigree , that this dog
will grow up ,having a very good structure and working qualities ,
subject to proper upbringing. please do not try to do too much and never imprint fear ,
until he has matured.

Please note that I'm very new and trying to
learn about the different working bloodlines.
Could those who are well versed in
working bloodlines please help out.

Looking at the photos' I would critique him as such :-

Good size, medium strong bi-coloured dog of very type with good bone and good proportions.
Showing a strong head , with very good expression ,well placed ears and dark eyes.
High withers , a firm back , with a croup of good lay but slighty short
and a very good topline which will strengthen with age.
The front angulations are very good,with a good lay of the upper arm.
The hind angulations are correct , with the hocks well let down
and proportionate length of bones,(hocks , lower thigh and upper thigh bones ).
Shows a good width and depth of chest , with good length of fore leg.

Please remember that he is only 5 mths.old and
he will be going through an a rapid growth period.
You will see changes in the structure , until he reaches maturity.

Maybe Jyl or Barbara Anderson could step in here to talk about the Czech working lines. They are both very well informed on that subject.

I too noticed the excellent layback on his front and with his angulation, he should have nice movement.

You have two beauties here.

Red Sable,

I will see if I can weigh him.

Steve,

Yes he is not overweight, he eats well and runs and plays a lot too.

Debi Sue,

You are sharp as usual thanks.

Michele,

Yes any one who can add on the dogs in the pedigree is welcome.

Thanks to Cee and SitasMom I am happy you like him.

Sonora,

I heartily thank you for the detailed critique, tell you what I will never be close to you in critique no matter how hard I will read and learn, I think it is a gift you have in addition to knowledge and experience. I am facinated with the vocabularies you use, they are so specific.

Thanks
Ibrahim
