В свете последних обсуждений я понял, что некоторые заводчики не имеют представления о том, как оценивать углы у собаки вообще и структуру перeднего плечевого пояса в частности. Приведенные ниже картинки сделаны на боксерах, но у биглей все ровно так же, так что картинки будут очень полезными.
FRONT ANGULATION: To evaluate the front angles on a dog, you first need to find the 3 cardinal points (top of shoulder, point of shoulder and elbow), create imaginary lines that connect them and evaluate the resulting angle. You DO NOT need to "see" the bones as they are not the way to judge the EXTERIOR of a dog. The best example of that is that the elbow is not part of the humerus - it is a part of the ulna called olecranus...
REAR ANGULATION: To evaluate the rear angles of a dog, you first need to find the 3 cardinal points (tip of the croup, point of buttocks and knee), create imaginary lines that connect them and evaluate the resulting angle. You DO NOT need to "see" the bones as they are not the way to judge the EXTERIOR of a dog. Notice that the angle is nowhere near the anatomical hip joint and that the line does NOT overlap the femur.
