G rated from the Open Class at 2006 USRC National Sieger Show by world reknown Judge Gerard O'Shea:

Small to medium size dog, normal substance but needs more bone, head form has sufficient width, prefer more definition of stop and foreface. Correct placed ears. Very dark eyes. Pigment very dark on lips, little mottled in the mouth, bite not complete scissors. Normal neckline. Strong overline in standing. Medium angles throughout. Normal ribcage, but somewhat deep. Well developed forechest. Correct coat but a little coarse on neck. Markings very dark on face and forechest, should be more clearly defined. Feet a little long, slightly turning out in movement. Exellent carriage, very good reach and drive, very true coming.

**Before we left the ring, Gerard O'Shea announced that Eli was the best moving dog in the entire class.

I would prefer more work in the head, but he's got a nice clean head with a beautiful eye. A very nice compact dog."
