    Good Versus Poor Angulation



    The examples shown below are intended for you to use
    as reference while studying the Breed Standard.



    This is an example of a good shoulder assembly





    This illustrates the difference between
    good and poor shoulder angulation.
    The image on the left shows proper angulation
    as well as proper placement
    (elbow should be directly underneath withers).
    The image on the right shows what happens
    when the elbow is forward from the withers
    (poor angulation and weak chest).





    This is an example of good angulation
    both in front & rear.

    Compare this to the example below.





    This is an example of poor angulation.

    Compare this to the image above.
