Fat is prevalent on the spinous processes but there is a slight ridge along the back. The ribs remain slightly discernible. The tailhead shows slight prominence although fat can easily be felt around the tailhead; conformation type will influence distinction. The point of hip is not noticeable and the withers, shoulders, and neck are not obviously thin but the expected transition of these structures is still not adequate.
