Just wondering how are you placing the dogs head. Head placment can effect his measurement more than people think. Try to hold his head straight out. When I'm judging I try to make sure I hold there head straight out as possible.

If you have there head up they will measure taller. Head real low they measure smaller. You can probably measure 3/4 inch difference just by there head being in different places.
