Another chat about length of foreleg and the correct proportions of the overall height of the dogs got me looking for a photo of Nico in his prime. (When measuring the overall height of the dog, consider that the length of leg should be greater than the depth of chest, so the depth of chest is 45-48% of the overall height. So the chest should ideally be relatively deep, with the bottom of the brisket (the front part of the chest) reaching at least to the level of the elbow. The length of the Skirt may make a dog to be deeper than they are!)
I miss this boy so much, where would we be now without him?
