Soprano de Thudinie

It is easy to criticize Justin Chastel, and sometimes even fashionable. But in spite of some rough edges I admire and respect the man. Here we have an early statement, just after the war. I wish we had a better representation of Soprano, for he was a pivotal dog, a prototype, a statement. This is the body of an athlete, shorter in body than the shepherd's dog, but not extreme. There is a slight rounding of the rump, and the tail is the extension of the backbone, not a little upright flag. Moderate in angulation, moderate depth of chest. Good proportional head exhibiting parallel planes of skull and nose. Compare this with what is winning today. Those who love the Bouvier will see the tragedy.
