looks pretty good. im no pro thats for sure but, i would pinch up on her chest a little to take what little bow there is on her back out. that should also put her up on her feet even more also..

how old?

first DONT point her head in the air. the top of her head needs be on same plane as her back (topline). the more you push her head up the more her chest pokes out...not a good look. also, you see how the skin bunches behind the collar? partly because the collar is on, partly due to position of head. watch the dog in her natural stance in the yard/pen..that's how u want it. cant tell becuase pic is cut off, but make sure teh front nails are trimmed. you do not want them standing on the nails, stand on the pads. try getting her up on her toes a little better (trimmed nails helps with that).
take her collar off when showing...helps produce a cleaner line.

cant tell, but need pics of front and back view to see the rest. always walk around your dog when showing. if you only stay on 1 side you are not seeing what the judge is seeing since they are walking all around.

this pic is better with regards to head set. notice the bump of skin is less (could be due to collar).
