Gramma Jane No, the hock should be shorter... You can not get a measurement since it all depends on the size of the dog. I can say that the femur and tibia should be of equal length, for correct bend, but the hock is shorter (let down)

Carla Gerber If you have a good eye, it is easy to figure out whats good or not. Some people will never see it, although they know the standard forwards and backwards , others have "the "eye and never have a problem seeing the right sizes.Same with measuring a dog. He can be easy 1 or2 cm too high, if the proportions are right, no problem.
