EXCELLENT
May only be awarded to a dog which comes very close to the ideal standard of the breed,
which is presented in excellent condition, displays a harmonious,
well-balanced behaviour, is of high class and has excellent posture.
Its superior characteristics in respect of its breed permit that minor imperfections can be
ignored; it must, however, have the typical features of its sex.
VERY GOOD
May only be awarded to a dog which possesses the typical features of its breed,
has a wellbalanced structure and is in good condition.
A few minor faults may be tolerated, but none of a morphological nature.
This grading can only be awarded to a dog that shows class.
GOOD
May be awarded to a dog that is a typical representative of its breed,
however showing clear faults.
SUFFICIENT
Must be awarded to a dog which corresponds adequately to its breed without possessing the
generally accepted characteristics or whose physical condition leaves something to be desired.

This quality grade may also beawarded to a dog, which does not appear healthy. In addition, it can be awarded to a dog that has faultsthat are listed as disqualifying faults in the breed standard.
CANNOT BE JUDGED
This rating is given to a dog whose gait is impossible to judge or is constantly avoiding being examined by
the judge and makes it impossible to check its bite and teeth, morphology, tail, or testicles, or if there are
detectable signs of measures or treatments which look like attempts at cheating or if the judge has reason
to suspect that a defect in the dog has been corrected (e.g. eyelids, ears, or tail). The reason why the dog
cannot be judged must be written in the critique.
