| Lupine is a moderately sized female, standing 22 inches tall. She has an exceptionally powerful front, with a super shoulder layback, lovely upper arm and prominent brisket. Lupine has an outstanding coat for a liver dog - a lovely glossy dark brown of correct texture, although sometimes she carries rather a lot of it, making her look heavier than she actually is. She has excellent feet and moves very nicely.
Lupine is a very strong and sturdy retriever, capable of carrying a large Canada Goose. Her skull is perhaps a little broad, but she has a long, wide muzzle to match and good fill-in under her eye. Her weakest point is a slightly low tailset. Lupine matured slowly but really started to come together at 2 years old. She finished her championship in 2005. |
