Someone please answer this...I would love to hear opinions on this topic.

Being new to bulldogs, this is one area that I'm not clear on. What do you mean by "well rounded stifles". That's not a term that's used in the standard....

I always hear people making comments about dogs having "nice rear angulation", but I don't understand what is enough and what is TOO much. When I look at the dogs that are being admired for their angulation, they usually appear (to me) to be excessively angulated. The Illustrated Guide to the Standard pictures demonstrate as "correct" a rear leg that has slight, but not what I would consider pronounced angulation. The dogs that are praised as having nice angulation often look more like the picture that is labled "crooked hock". So how much is too much?

Can someone please explain or show examples?
