poodle color change?
I recently adopted a poodle from a breeder. She is solid red, except a
few furs on the chest is white. The breeder says it will turn to red when the puppy (she is 9 weeks now) grows up. Is it true? My neighbor's son has a spot of white hair since his birth. He is 16 now, and it's still white. :P |

ups.com: I recently adopted a poodle from a breeder. She is solid red, except a few furs on the chest is white. The breeder says it will turn to red when the puppy (she is 9 weeks now) grows up. It is normal that colored ares get slightly larger and white patches slightly smaller when a pup grows. Few white hairs on chest will most likely disappear totally, and a coin/sized spot might turn into few white hairs. (I guess that you actually bought that pup, and didn't adopt it..) Is it true? My neighbor's son has a spot of white hair since his birth. He is 16 now, and it's still white. :P Human pregnancy is much longer than dog pregnancy, and so it is possible that the human color is more ready when a baby is born. And that white hair spot might be caused by some other mechanism than the white chest spot your pup has. Liisa |
