The specialized publishing of the books of the dog never had proposal an cynognostic (typical and functional breed dog-diagnostic) study on the Bobtail very much exhaustive and technically irreproachable, as that contained in the this book. So is an text of research, what anyone never think in precedence, what put into effect the innovation of the cynognostic (typical and functional breed dog-diagnostic) subject, applied in the monographic specialistic seat, however rigorous and detailed, second how requested from an complicated breed, as the Old English Sheepdog. With the departure from the presupposition of the historical route of the general zoognostic and the cynognostic (typical and functional breed dog-diagnostic), with the landing to the correct criterion of the embellished working dog for the modern necessity, this work introducing on the Bobtail means of the very same key of deepened, so that not whether bad interpreted, or rather only second the simplistic part of the beauty in order to oneself same, mistakenly planed on the obsolete methodology of the harmony of the shape, instead what on the correct utility of the shape, destined to the technical continuation of the utilitarian beauty validated to scientific level.

The widest and detailed treatment of the Bobtail in the world-wide survey of the specialized publishing, thanks to a very exhaustive and technically unexceptionable study. The official breed standard in force is deeply examined. The text, based on typicalness and functionality, strengthens the importance of zootechnical beauty and includes the innovative proposals of a synthetic morphologic breed standard suggested to single out the basic features of this breed more easily. Moreover, it contains an aptitude breed test and its working breed standard. The publication deals with the role of the Bobtail and comes to the scientific conception of the typology of the ideal breed prototype.
