Don't judge from a picture! 

Both of these pictures of Copper were taken the same weekend -
on the occasion of his winning his first 2 points

This picture makes him look high in the rear; too sharply falling off from the hips; straight shouldered; too short in the body; short necked; not well angulated in the rear; too straight in the pasterns; narrow thighed; slab sided; straight in the upper arm; and ewe necked.

This picture gives a much truer idea of what he really looks like. It shows well his actual shoulder and upper arm angulation; set, length and arch of neck; pastern angle; rear angulation; arch of loin; body length and width of thighs. It also gives a slightly better idea of his depth of chest and doesn't give the same impression of slab-sidedness.

Neither picture shows his actual width of body or back
