I was out in the pen with my dog yesterday and I put him in the show dog stance. I thought he looked pretty good. The only thing about him is he is a little bow legged. So would that make him loose points or be disqualified?

A "little bow legged" sounds like it could be he has a barrel chest and is throwing his elbows out. Without seeing a pic or anything, that's what comes to mind.

That's a fault and you would lose points, but its not disqualifying.

When you view your dog from the front, make sure the legs come straight down from the chest. Best of luck!!!
