So after reading that these exist on another thread, I went on google images and got... like 5 pictures and alot were puppies.. and pups dont really help me get an idea of what one would look like as an adult.

Certainly someone on here owns/has seen a sable or brindle poodle, can someone please describe what these look like as adults and if possible post some pics? this really has spiked my interest

I just replied to the thread about multicolor poodles, but I don't mind posting the info again. Just an FYI, these were the best examples of the actual way they look, but the colors of brindles and sables can vary.

Here's the website,

First pic is of a brindle, second is of a sable.

Lol just before you replied to this I saw yours on the other thread.

The sable in the pic looks nice but on the link explaining it.. looks kinda like someone threw up after eating assorted chocolates all over him.

the brindle was hard to see

More Sables, this is a dog I found on flikr

That was a lovely analogy

Yeah, the brindle is not as noticeable as it is on the attached pic. From afar it looks like a black that has sun bleaching. I've seen pictures of silver/white brindles and again it's not too noticeable from afar.

I don't really like the sort of off yellow color mixed with brown most sables seem to have.

Not to mention how really unpredictable the coat is. You never really know what colors and patterns your going to end up with.

Though I have to admit that the sable in the pictures Fluffyspoos has provided looks very cool and interesting. That's a sable I wouldn't mind owning.

Some Brindle Partis





I think they're all gorgeous, especially the last one, I looooove grey and white partis / grey and white brindle partis

As silvers and silver partis I don't mind the sable and brindle.

It's just that really weird off yellow/brown color I dislike. Looks like most outgrow it.

This site has some good examples of the Brindles... aki, I agree with you about the sables, but I'm finding the Brindles SO intriguing! The one I'm talking about is half-way down the page.

I have a cream sable named Tickle. I got him when he was 16 weeks old and now he's three years old. Here are some pics of him at 8wks, 12wks, 16wks, and now:

Hope this helps!

I guess as long as it is a "rare" color, anything can be a breeding dog.
