Untrimmed dogs : The coat at its longest not to exceed five inches (12,7 cm).  Soft, wavy or loosely curled with the sheen of silk.  Under no circumstances should the coat be "fluffed out" like a Poodle or an Old English Sheepdog.  Dogs shown in this condition should be heavily penalised as they give a wrong impression of type and breed.  Special attention is drawn to puppy coat development.  Pups are seldom born with the correct coat of maturity, care must be taken when assessing this point.  They go through several changes of colour and texture before developing the mature adult coat.  This usually occurs between 18 months and 2½ years.
Pups : Are seldom born with the correct colour or texture coat.  They  come reddish, greyish and sometimes clear wheaten.  The masks are generally black.  Sometimes there is a black streak down the centre back or black tips to the body coat.  These dark markings clear away with growth.
