He will be 33 months on the 20th, cannot believe my little puppy is almost 3 years old.

Very handsome boy.

I think so, too, but I'm probably a bit biased

Hard to believe he will be a 3 year old in a few months, still remember when he was this awful gangly little land shark.

Very balanced dog. I like his body. The only thing that I find takes away from the overall picture is his neck and how it sits on his shoulders (I think) or maybe his chest. Something about the front. OK withers going into a very nice topline with good placement of a correct croup. Good angulation in front, Very good behind. He does appear to toe out a bit in front. OK feet and pasterns.

Nice pics, nice natural stack. The collar doesn't help seeing him fully.
Second photo looks like weak under jaw but probably the photo.
Slightly square in height and length but that could be the photo angle.
Nice topline, nice everything. Good moving shot shows his reach and solid back.

Thank you very much for the critiques, it really does help me learn a great deal about conformation. It's also interesting to compare it to past critiques from when he was younger (or stacked differently!)

I did take this while we were out for a run, and this was right before I set him off leash. I should have taken off his collar (it really is an awfully bulky collar!), will remember that next time. Overall though definitely one of the better stacked shots I have of him, especially as far as ones that correctly represent his appearance in person.

Thanks again! I am very happy with how he has been maturing.
