However, in the ring I will follow the standard. If white is a serious fault, and with that fault it is the best dog in the ring, (coming closest to the standard), I would put it up. I do, however, (unlike some judges) believe fault in movement either from the side, coming or going, is a very serious fault. I do believe lack of side-gait is a fault in movement. That is not a popular opinion. But, it is mine and does match our standard. Not that there is anything wrong with that. Evan L.
