Oh, I forgot, she's also asking about head size. Why would someone ask about head size? Has anyone here heard of someone asking about head size?
What I think she is trying to address, is the different types of heads, some are larger, with courser features, some are smaller with a cutsey face.....The most important thing is the ear set on the head, you prefer a tight ear set.....the distance between the outside of the eyes should equal the distance from the eyes to the end of the muzzle....what you are looking for is a well balanced head. Another thing to look at is whether or not the dog is down faced. Look at it from the side, see if the muzzle downward slants.....

Is she looking for a show dog? Do you have an illustrated standard?

If this is the case the dog should have a look at me attitude not afraid of the devil......very outgoing,
