I agree his coat looks plentifull. Texture is quite impossible to tell from pics (at least for me), but coat gleam isn't, it is either there or not.
Also I do like his coloration. Looks good to me.
Yes even up here we see all kinds of coat in the show ring. Doesn't mean that they are the correct coats...*SHRUGS*
I might have gone a bit overboard here. BUt I truly enjoy mentoring newbies to the show ring. And also I can be very direct on this front.
I want this OP to have every advantage we can give him in the show ring. Why? Because I totally support newbies to the show ring. In fact there now is a category in AKC show rings for Newbie handlers. It is quite great as far as I can tell.
