Question 2

Pendulous, set well back, wide apart, low on skull, hanging close to cheeks with very slight projection at base; broad at junction of head and tapering almost to a point, fore part of ear coming almost straight down from its junction with head to tip. Cartilage and skin of ear very thin. Length of ear, from 7.5 - 10 cms (3 - 4 ins). Ears harmonise in colour with body colour. In a pepper dog covered with soft, straight, dark hair (in some cases almost black). In a mustard dog, hair mustard in colour, a shade darker than body but not black. Both should have a thin feather of light hair starting about 5 cms (2 ins.) from the tip, and of nearly the same colour and texture as topknot, giving ear appearance of a distinct point. This may not appear until after the age of two years.
