The dentition is slightly prognathic. The eyes, apart, are very large, round and dark, with an attentive and gentle expression. The ears, usually cut, are small and thin, worn very straight. The limbs are straight and muscular, plump. The tail, short and inserted low, can be straight or oblique; it is carried horizontally.
