Corgis Corgis are short in stature, with moderate bone mass and deep chest. The overall proportion of the body's side profile is that length is much greater than height. The tail is set very low and resembles a fox's tail. The overall impression is: a beautiful, powerful small dog, with very good speed and endurance, intelligent, and solidly built but not rough. Body shape Overall balance is more important than absolute size. When standing naturally, both males and females are approximately 10.5 12.5 inches tall at the withers. The ideal ratio of height (the vertical distance from the withers to the ground) and body length (the horizontal distance from the sternum to the back of the buttocks [where the ischium is located]) is approximately 1/1.8. The ideal weight for males is about 3038 pounds; for females, the ideal weight is about 2534 pounds. Lack of overall proportion, being too large or too small are serious faults.Head The head is delicate and in harmony with gender and physique. It must not be too big and bulky, nor too small and slender to be inconsistent with the rest of the body. The expression is alert, refined, alert, and friendly. The eyes are slightly larger than medium in size, not protruding, the eye circles are dark black, and the corners of the eyes are clear. The locations are quite spread out. The eyes are dark and match the color of the coat. Blue eyes (including part of the eye being blue), or one eye being blue and the other being dark, are allowed on blue merle colored dogs, while dogs of other colors are disqualified. The ears appear large and conspicuous in relation to the overall size of the Corgi. The tips of the ears are slightly rounded, while the pinna is very strong. The ears are moderately broad at the base, erect, and turned slightly forward when alert. When the ears are erect, the distance between the tips of the ears is slightly wider. Draw from the tip of the nose to the center of the eyes.A straight line that just extends to the tip of the ear. Small or pointed ears are a serious fault. Drop ears are a disqualification. Skull: The top of the head between the ears is moderately broad and flat, with no obvious protrusion of the occipital bone, which gradually tapers toward the eyes. Lower slightly between the eyes. The cheeks are flat, with a sculptural feel under the eyes and where they join the front face. The cheekbones are not prominent. The length of the muzzle (the distance from the nose to the stop) is slightly shorter than the length of the head (the distance from the stop to the highest point of the occipital bone). The length ratio of the muzzle to the head is about 3/4; the muzzle is round but not blunt; Tapered but not pointed. The contour of the muzzle is parallel to that of the skull, but slightly lower than that of the skull, mainly due to a clear and moderate stop. The nose should be black, except for blue merle dogs. Black noses are preferred for blue merle dogs, but butterfly noses are also acceptable. Dogs of other colors will be disqualified if their noses are not black. The lips are tight and simple. Jaws strong and clean. The mandible is moderately deep, extending to the nose, and the chin is round. The teeth are strong and even. A scissors bite is preferred. Overshot bites, undershot bites, and crooked teeth are serious faults. Neck, topline, body Neck of moderate length, well muscled and free of fat. Especially in males, the neck is very developed but in harmony with the overall proportion. The neck is extended forward and integrated well with the shoulders. Topline level. The body is long and strong. Chest of moderate width, with prominent sternum. The chest is deep and well sprung, providing ample room for the lungs. The ribs extend posteriorly. The waist is short, strong and moderately lifted. The waist is clear. The croup is slightly downward, sloping toward the tail. Tail: The position is relatively low relative to the body and extends to the hock. When standing and strolling, the tail hangs straight down; when he suddenly runs, the tail is raised parallel to the ground; when excited, the tail is raised upward, but never curled over the back. A high tail is a serious fault. Forequarters Chest of moderate width, tapering downwards and relaxing between the forelegs. The shoulder blades slope sufficiently downward and outward from the withers to provide adequate room for the ribs to expand. The shoulder blades are long and sloping back, integrating with the upper arm at an angle close to 90 degrees. The length of the upper arm bone is approximately equal to that of the shoulder blade. The elbows fit close to the body without being sloppy or restrictive. The forearm (ulna and precarpus) curves along the expansion of the ribs. This bend brings the wrists (wrist joints) closer together than the elbows. Pasterns strong but pliable. Dewclaw removal. The feet are quite large and round, with thick pads. The toes should be pointed slightly outward, in line with the shoulders when viewed in width, and should be kept straight forward when walking. observed from above, towardThe angle between the outer deflection and the center line cannot exceed 30 degrees. The toes cannot be spread. In a correct Cardigan, the forelegs are neither straight nor overly curved to appear unhealthy. Overall, a dog of this size appears to have plenty of bone mass, but it is not too exaggerated to appear clumsy or not agile enough. Pointing straight ahead, pointing incorrectly is a serious fault. Hindquarters Hindquarters are muscular and strong, but slightly less broad than at the shoulders. The hip bone (pelvis) slopes slightly downward from the hip, forming a right angle with the thigh bone at the hip socket. Stifles and hocks are moderately angulated. Hocks set low. The metatarsals are perpendicular to the ground and parallel to each other. Dewclaw removal. The feet point straight forward, are slightly smaller than the forelimbs, and are more oval-shaped. The toes are rounded. The pads are thick. Overall, the hindquarters must be powerful enough to propel the small, but relatively heavy, sheepdog effectively across a variety of terrain. |
