New standars from Australia and these are already F.C.I standars , and soon also in Finland.
Alla uusi rotumaaritelma joka on jo aikaa sitten hyvaksytty F.C.I , ja lopultakin saadaan pian Suomessa se kayttooon.
Huomatkaa hannan uusi tarkempi maaritelma. Samoin tuo muuttunut suurentunut koko, vihdoinkin ollaan paasty siita 22 cm terrieri ajattelusta. Muutenkin on pienta hienosaantoa nahtavissa.
Virallinen suomennus on tulossa, joten en ala tata tassa suomentamaan, silla jotkut sanonnat tuottaa vaikeuksia jopa ammatti kaantajille.
Mielestani tuo liikkumisesta kertova kohta varsin monelle.
Kun siina puhutaan VOIMAKAS TAKAPOTKU , se on kasitetty liian usein PITKATAKA POTKU , mita se ei suinkaan tarkoita. Voimakas on ihan muuta kuin pitka!!
