Then I read the critique of the dog in second place .. errr hang on that sounds more like Loki .. I think there has been some confusion here, Loki does have slightly light eyes, and his ears could be firmer! And the dog in front of him was a very pale tan with poor pigment .... anyway sadly it has gone to print as it is and there's shit all I can do!
Have a read of both ... which best describes Loki?
2 / 19 months black and gold above middle size, dry and firm. Masculine, eyes could be darker and ears should be firmer. Normal wither, slight nick in the backline, very good angles front and rear with very good reach and drive.
3/18 months pale black and gold above medium size and strength of good proportions and well balanced. Masculine head which would benefit from stronger pigmentation. Toes in coming, with good reach and drive!
Here are the two dogs he's describing!
But which is which???
