The overall muscular limbs of the purebred Chenery are well-developed and walk in unison, with the wind at their feet, majestic and imposing, with the limbs, back, neck and head, forming a more graceful arc in their natural state, while the front legs are straighter and the hind legs should be slightly tilted forward, with rounded feet and toes more like those of a cat.

Another characteristic of the Sheltie is that the tail root is high and the tail is held up just above the back line. The schnauzer has a double coat, a hard outer bristle and a dense undercoat. The head, neck, ears, chest, tail and body need to be stripped. Under competition conditions, the coat on the body must be of sufficient length to reflect the texture of the coat. Complete coverage of the neck, ears and head. Quite dense in texture but not silky. Defects: Coat is too soft or too short, or appears smooth.
