Been trying to pose this girl for forever before getting this: The back toes are perfectly aligned, but the front left leg is showing. Which is more important? Also, should her chin be lifted higher? She stayed at that level for a good 5 seconds and wouldn't go higher. EDIT: Just got these two where the front legs are aligned but the back feet are offset. Still not sure which leg alignment is better, but I like this chin height A LOT better. Which one of all three is best? (yes these two are slightly different)

Both are really solid poses, but in my experience I'd say the bottom right pose is ever so slightly better. The alignment of the back feet is a tiiiny bit more parallel to the front in my opinion (like one or two pixels lmao). And although this relates to my personal judging style, I think the nose is slightly fuller and shows the natural "y-shape" at the front as well, which I look for in dane poses when I judge because it shows symmetry. And although it doesn't truly matter when judging, the back of the ear appears smoother and a little more aesthetically pleasing. I always thought chin height didn't really factor in when judging, although I agree that danes do look better with an elevated head. Ahhh I might be going overboard here but whatever lol.

Not overboard, that was really helpful!
I'll go with the second pose then c: And I'm assuming you like the leg alignment on the second set of poses rather than the first?

Ah good lol, I'm hopped up on coffee tonight and felt like writing a novel. But yeah, the alignment on the bottom two is exactly what I look for
