"The tail should be high set and carried erect but not curling over the back."
Who made up those rules anyway?
I mean, could I be more handsome?
PS from Gail: Low self-esteem has never been a problem with Bertie.

Bwahaahaa! Bella has one of those tails. We think you might change the standard if they ever get a look at your handsomeness.
ReplyDeleteXXXOOO Daisy, Bella & Roxy
Handsome indeed Bertie. No doubt about it. Have a fabulous Friday.
ReplyDeleteBest wishes Molly
Bertie - As they would say in Glasgow - You're a wee stunner .
ReplyDeleteHandsome indeed Bertie! I am a substantial wire, an do not meet "standards" in either height or weight. Muzzer loves me anyway, and that is all that is important.

ReplyDeleteBertie mate, your a bonzer bloke, no worries! Which is the aussie way of saying you're as braw as the heather you're standing in...
(Is there mention in the standard about increasing head diameters???)

These things are character builders, Bertie, they make you a stronger, wiser guy. On the other hand, you could drive the UK Kennel Club crazy with mail and calls until they let you in!
ReplyDeleteCheers,
from one who knows!
We agree, you makes up these silly rules, it ain't us puppers!

mmmm, don't get us started on breed standards.
ReplyDeleteYou're perfect by the way, just perfect as nature made you
Howdy Bertie, practically perfect in every way. Silly old standards aren't they.

The rules are clearly wrong, Bertie, they should have been made to suit you!
ReplyDeletePippa :)
Bertie:
ReplyDeleteYou are beyond handsome! As you know... :).
Keep on wagging that tail high.

Straight up Bah Humbug! Our tails have to bend, why if they didn't bend how would we every keep it out of the way of our poops.
