Trimming of the whiskers is up to the discretion of the owner. The rear pasterns may be trimmed. The hair on the feet may be trimmed to facilitate ease and efficiency of fieldwork and to show the natural outline. No other trimming is acceptable. The primary body color is white, accompanied by lemon or orange markings.
Equal consideration is given to markings around one or both eyes or to a white face.
The fewer the markings on the body, the better. A spot near the set-on of the tail is common and acceptable. In the front and a strong drive from the rear. The hocks drive in a straight line. This is a comfortable, efficient gait that can be maintained for a day of work in the fields.
