@jengosmonkey - Correct depending on his conformation... it that and movement met the standard then yes.... years ago a friend had a black & white Male that was about 30lbs and was about 19 to 20" tall... he finished his championship. Chances of the "Neuticles" being discovered most likely would have happened, however. It had been tried in other breeds.... one was with a Golden that only had 1 testicle so they had one neuticle implanted when the pup was about 8 months... funny thing about testicles... sometimes can come down at the most inopportune times... image the judge when did his exam and discovered "3" testicles....LOL Opps! by the way the dog and the owner & handler were DQ.
Tail is getting thin?
-
My Male B used to have a wonderful full tail and lately it is looking kind of skinny? He is on Thyroid pills(has been for 4 years) and was tested a month agao. He did have major dental surgery-could that be it? He eats well and is a happy dog. Any ideas?
-
When you say thin do you mean the fur is thin? How old is he and what's his current weight?
-
and be bushy-now it looks kind of sad. He will be 10 years old in December and is on a diet-weighs 30 pounds. He has a good kibble plus get vegatables and salmon and tuna juice as a treat. Vet says he is very healthy. We have had weird weather this year and Summer has just arrived. My female B still has her furry pants and they are usually gone in the Summer.

Any chance he is pulling hair out of it? I had a girl with quite a bushy tail and in the hot weather I guess she found it itchy and would pull hair out but not actually chew it. She did this more as she got older…..
-
Nope-he hasnt been doing that. His coat is dry in patches but he is shedding right now.Its possible but he doesnt hide things so he would be doing it in front of me.
-
Could just be part of blowing coat…. (shedding)
-
I hope so-looks pretty pitiful
