Britt pup pointing wing 6 wks: color question

Post by boonebrit » Tue Oct 09, 2012 6:56 pm

A few of you on here gave me some good insight on the pedigree of my soon to be new and first Britt pup.

http://gundogcentral.com/view_pedigree. ... =0&damID=0

He is doing great and looks to be very birdy. Thought I would post a couple of pics of him pointing a wing. Not that it really matters to me, but I was wondering if his colors look a little washed out? I know they get darker as they mature, but it looks like I'm getting a light colored Britt... too early to tell? Thanks.

I believe he will end up colored great.

Here are a couple of shots of my pup at about the same age your dog is and again at 13 weeks.
The colors will come in.

I actually really like the lighter colors, but most dogs' coloring changes during the first few months of their lives. Just out of curiosity, has anyone seen significant changes in the coloring pattern on a dog as it grew?

Every roan or heavily ticked pup changes as they grow.

It's not how many breaths you have taken but how many times it has been taken away!

Has anyone noticed common sense isn't very common anymore.
