Build strong yet light, compact, barrel-shaped, with low withers, short muscular neck, elongated format (index 1.15–1.22). Head relatively large (380–460 mm, 38–40 % of withers height), broad in the frontal region, profile straight or slightly concave. Ears small, erect (90–120 mm). Eyes large, dark brown or almost black. Nostrils large, mobile. Vibrissae long (80–100 mm). Limbs dry, strong, with short cannon (circumference 135–160 mm).
