    Not a good idea AJ, or you'll be getting questions like what kind of dog is a Chart Polski?

    Am I allowed to use google translator? Or would it even do me any good? :o

    Google translate would give it away alright. How about a guess at classification then- as in terrier, hound, molosser, retriever etc?

    On a side note, its pronounced Heart Polski

    Not many people would. Almost everyone I've said it to thinks they're from Newfoundland as well.

    So, anyone else got a question?

    Are ya mad? 1.2 meters is SJI height for seasoned show-jumpers (horses I mean) :eek:

    Large Dogs – to be between 55cm (1ft 9.6ins) and 65cm (2ft 1.6ins).
    Medium Dogs – to be between 35cm (1ft 1.75ins) and 45cm (1ft 5.7ins).
    Small Dogs     – to be between 25cm (9.8ins) and 35cm (1ft 1.75ins).
