Fault - Lack of dewclaws. The large front and hind feet are oval in shape. There is hair between the toes. The pads are strong, hard and dark. The nails are strong and blunt.
Dark nails are preferred.
The tail set is not very high, following the slope of the croup. It is held below the level of the back. When the dog is excited, it may be held above the level of the back, but is not rolled. In length, it reaches to the hock. The end of the tail may be a little twisted.
