Hi all, I am at a disadvantage in that we have moved to a new home just 11 days ago for the first time in 16 years and all of my books are still in boxes. <VBG> However, I have found the binder I received from the first AKC breed seminar I attended in July of 1995. Under the discussion notes regarding gait it says:
The correct movement is light and active, covering the ground with level topline. Moving away the should be straight and parallel with no throwing out of elbows or paddling. In profile the balance of the dog should show up, making an elegant picture from nose to end of tail in one flowing movement, with proud head carriage and good arch of neck, making good use of the hindquarters and hocks. Regular, rhythmic steps with hind legs moving well forward under the body, will give plenty of drive. There should be no hackney action in front. Pacing, i.e., when the fore and hind leg on each side move together is undesirable.
