The teeth are white close in a scissors or pincers bite. Their round eyes are average-sized and the white of the eye isn’t visible. The rims are black and the iris is dark in color. Their high-set ears are long and hanging, and they are rigid at their base so that the external ear’s upper part is detached from the skull. Their tail is carried in a curve over the back.
