Critique on my 6 month old male - Page 1

Would love any critiques on my boy. He had just turned 6 months in this picture. 

I don`t know where to start and I`m also not a pro. I`d say he`s got a nice topline, powerfull neck and good angulations. Good bent stiffle.

He seems very agile. 

I saw you also posted him in the other show confirmation post. You can check out mine, I posted just before you.

Let me hear your opinion

Very nice looking young boy. Good proportions, a strong head and neck, beautiful topline, good high and long withers, good strong back, good croup lay and length, good tail and tailset. Hind needs more angulation, nice underline, needs more fore chest development ( since he does not have sufficient fore chest development his back looks a bit long), Steep front upper arm, shoulder blade could use more lay back, good pasterns. A nice looking boy with rich pigment and beautiful color.

Is this a Drago son? Good looking boy.

Like him a lot;  beautiful neck length with nice looking proportions particularly for his age which can change with age as you probably know.  This boy is put together beautifully, very eye catching with and exhudes good health.  Good luck with him,  Nan

Stunning.  What is his pedigree line? (maybe need to add this to my watch list)   Does he have a high prey drive (something to consider on my watch list / dogs out of this line maybe too much for me)?

Thanks guys! He has extremely high drives (food, ball, hunt, prey, and fight even coming through at such a young age). He is extremely confident, very agile and athletic, outgoing boy, wants to work, and has formed an extremely strong bond with me. Nice off-switch, cuts off beautifully in the house and will lay around with me, then get up and go when it's time to go. It's been a joy working him so far :) He's DM Clear, shot his hips for a prelim and they look fantastic. Full dentition. Love this boy! 

This is his pedigree, and yes, he's my Drago son :)

That explains a lot. I really like the looks of the Drago line. Most are too much of a drive dog for me. Although Cirberus and I are having a lot of fun in agility. If I keep going, a dog with a bit more drive maybe what I want....
