When you guys measured elbow to elbow, was that having them sit and just measuring the distance between their elbows in a straight line, or did you wrap the tape and go from one elbow to the other around the chest?

I gave the all the way around the chest measurement. I asked because a couple of Maple's measurements confused me considering we have the same breed. The stop to tip of nose measurement- I used basically the tip of nose to right where the skull slopes up near the eyes, which on Gunnar was 5" but Maples were like 11" I gave the stop to back of skull measurement from the base of the nose near the eyes to the end of the little knobby point on the back of the head. Is that right? Bueller? Bueller?

Its awesome that so many people are participating. So interesting.

I would love to see some fila measurements here. And more pitties, of course.

I also noticed the 11 inch muzzle measurement from the chazer who owns a GSD. I'm thinking he misunderstood. Sorry, cant remember his name!

In our house we call that knobby point the "smart bump". The bigger the bump, the smarter the dog. :p
