5 month Czech Lines Critiques Welcome - Page 1

Amigo Hardy z Salem 24 weeks 23in 54lbs... Critiques welcome!!

Hopefully others will chime in.  From a personal standpoint, I really like this puppy;  beautiful length of neck. nice length of back however I do prefer a puppy a bit shorter in length of back than the standard calls for, nice ear set and beautiful erect strong ears; nice substance;  lovely pigment, for me the darker the better.  Like his overall balance.  Hope this helps; things may change as he grows but hopefully not.  Like him a lot.  Why don't you tell us about his temperament?  Would love to hear, as well as pedigree.  A nice sound puppy from a visual standpoint.  Good luck with him,  Nan

Thanks Nan this Pup is listed on the database..very Balanced puppy he's a dream in the house. He has very high/extreme drive(prey,play,ball,food,and pack) and he learns fast. Good nose. Could have more hunt but he's got enough. The most important thing is his strength of nerve and resilience.. The only thing I see right now is with male dogs and male humans he wants to fight already its in his eyes and his posture... He doesn't bark but that's the only time this dogs tail even goes above back level.

To young to judge properly.

What I see currently is: good type and overall expression ,high at withers, good top line, good depth of chest, although chest developement should be better, muzzle and coat too snippy, tail too long, weak pasterns and lack of pigment on neck, ears and inbetween hind legs. Not judging angulations (front and back) because I`m unsure about the stack and angle of photo. 

My judgment seems pretty harsh, but he`s gonna outgrow most of the negs. IMO very good overall expression and definetly a keeper.

I don`t mean to offend anyone but it looks as if he is sickle hocked. It can be outgrown and does occur in puppies, but I`m a little worried at 5  months. More pictures could give a better judgment for this though.

I would love to see him gating as well as coming and going.

Harrisongsd, your pup is developing, still. He looks like a nice pup and just needs time and maturity. Color is of least importance, so don't worry about that, besides, he has plenty dark pigment. The prong is probably wearing the hair off the back of his neck. But he lucked to be a substantial, growing puppy with lots of 'tude:-)

I agree totally with nans and partially with Sporter. I will add this

Very good length of croup but steep. Very good rear angulation though it could use little more stifle turn. Good shoulder, front upper arm slightly steep and forechest could use a bit more development. Very good hocks and pasterns

He only wears a prong for 2 mins a day if that 

Thanks all!! I understand he is still growing and developing just curious never stacked until yesterday and thought I'd post lol
