The stop is moderate but well-defined. A full compliment of strong, white teeth meet in a scissors bite. An even bite is a fault. Teeth broken or missing by accident are not penalized. Very expressive, showing attentiveness and intelligence.
Color is brown, blue, amber, or any variation or combination including flecks and marbling.
Prick ears and hound-type ears are severe faults. The neck is firm, clean and in proportion to the body. It is of medium length and slightly arched at the crest, setting well into the shoulders. The body is firm and muscular. The topline appears level at a natural four-square stance.
