khun Mongkol,
I have seen many Bangkaew with correct short backs and square proportions. My foundation dogs do have a bit longer back, so I will try and improve that in future generations. Shorter backs will be one thing I look for when I go to Thailand again for more dogs.
When trying to improve rear angulation it's best to choose puppies and adults that have shorter hocks. Then there is more angulation in the rear and it's a stronger moving rear and less prone to being 'hocky' (cowhocked).
So-phi has a longer hock and very little rear angulation:
Booker also has a longer hock and less rear angulation that I prefer:
Rush, pictured at 4 months old, has a shorter hock and more bend of stifle:
Thai-ger (Kyrie's Thai One On) at 8 weeks old, very nice short hock and angulation. As you can see comparing him to his win pictures above they loose some angulation as they mature. So it's best to choose a puppy that looks overangulated.
