Side 107 - Legs and fed (value 10). The legs should be straight, and the feet large, but strong; the toes are somewhat open, and covered with short crisp curls. In all dogs of this breed the legs are thickly clothed with short curls, slightly...
Side 122 - Very powerful and muscular, wide, and fully developed. " Stern. — -Well set on, and carried low, if possible below the level of the back, in a perfectly straight line, or with a slight downward inclination ; never elevated above the back, and in action always kept low ; nicely fringed, with wavy feather of silky texture.

Side 107 - Is very thick at the root, where it is clothed with very short hair. Beyond the root, however, the hair is perfectly short, so as to look as if the tail had been clipped, which it sometimes fraudulently is at shows, but the natural bareness of the tail is a true characteristic of the breed.
Side 114 - AND SHOULDERS— Neck sufficiently long to allow the nose to reach the ground easily, muscular, free from throatiness and running into clean-cut, sloping shoulders, which should not be wide at the points.
Side 110 - The arms and thighs must be bony as well as muscular, knees and hocks large and strong; pasterns very short and bony, feet large and round, and with short hair between the toes. The legs...
Side 126 - That most characteristic stamp of blue blood in all the spaniel family may, in the lighter and more active cocker, although set low down, be allowed a slightly higher carriage than in the other breeds, but never cocked up over, but rather in a line with the back, though the lower its carriage and action the better, and when at work its action should be incessant in this, the brightest and merriest of the whole spaniel family.
Side 109 - The skull should be moderately long and also wide, with an indention in the middle and a full stop, brows fairly heavy; occiput full, but not pointed, the whole giving an appearance of heaviness without dullness.
Side 106 - EYES (10) are very peculiar. Face very long and quite bare of curl, the hair being short and smooth, though not glossy; nose broad and nostrils well developed; teeth strong and level; eyes small and set, almost flush, without eyebrows.
Side 108 - ... over on the front edge, vine-shaped, close to the head; set on low and feathered only on the front edge, and there but slightly. Hair short and silky, without the slightest approach to wave or curl. NECK AND SHOULDERS. — Neck long, thick, and powerful; free from dewlap, with a large ruff. Shoulders immensely strong and muscular, giving a heavy appearance in front. BODY AND QUARTERS. — Body very long and low, well ribbed up, and long in the coupling. Chest of great depth and volume. Loin powerful...
Side 121 - Bulldog; its very stamp and countenance should at once convey the conviction of high breeding, character and nobility; skull well developed, with a distinctly elevated occipital tuberosity, which, above all, gives the character alluded to; not too wide across muzzle, long and lean, never snipy nor squarely cut, and in profile curving gradually from nose to throat; lean beneath eyes, a thickness here gives coarseness to the whole head. The great length of muzzle gives surface for the free development...
