Tail

Oh yes, there is. The standard says:

"TAIL
Set on high, hanging straight down. When dog is excited, generally raised up in sickle shape."

I suppose, your dog is showing himself with the tail raised up, when he sees other dogs? That is normal, if he gets excited, but not good for the judge. To be able to judge the lenght of tail and it´s setting, the judge logically wants the dog to carry his tail in normal position, ie hanging down. At least when the dog is standing in show position.

Was it this case, or you think the judge meant something else?
