Any point colour without white is accepted, the descriptions of colours are listed in the General Colour Guide. The eye colour is a vivid blue, the more intensive the better.

Severe faults: Extremely fattened or unduly domed skull, running eyes, breathing difficulties, too fine built or long in body, greasy or stringy coat, too much powder left in the coat .
