Do not correct it. A male dog who carries his tail like this, is happy self-confident, a bit dominant dog. If you will punish him for being happy and self-confident, he will never understand it.

If your goal is to visit many dog shows with him, you don´t want your dog to be upset, bored and unhappy there.

Screw the judges, most of them do not know what they are judging. What they preffer, is their own personal prefference and very often that prefference interferes with the standard or reasonable requirements.

Look at these male dogs in the last Club Dog show in Litomerice, CR.






and the specialist of "tail high" - Oliver Passo del Lupo


You can see, that it is absolutely normal for a male dog to carry his tail up, when the dog is running (with Oliver, even when he´s walking ). And the Slovakian judge, Sona Bognarova, did not have any problem with that. Because she also KNOWS this is normal.
So "tail too high" is complete nonsense, created by judges who do not know anything about the breed.
