What you are taking on

Nobody has written this side yet. It is a judgement rather than data, so it waits for a person — not for a missing source.

Drawn from sources rather than written as an opinion — cited health research, the registry’s own standard, and peer-reviewed longevity. FCI breed standard. One breeder’s animals can differ from any of it, and an empty column means we hold nothing for that side rather than that there is nothing to say.

Characteristics

Coat and colour

As the FCI standard sets it out. Every line below is the standard’s own wording.

Coat

Short and fine

Colour

  • Preferred
  • Permissible
  • Undesirable
  • Disqualifying

Preferred, permissible, undesirable and disqualifying are FCI’s own words about the breed. They describe what the standard asks for — not an assessment of any individual dog, and not ours.

  • White-lemon or white and orange on condition that the orange is not too dark going on to red

Shortened from FCI standard n°316 — each label is the standard’s own wording with the verdict lifted into the tag beside it. Read the full clause at source.
