Never having had a Poodle before, I was not aware until now that some of them will change colour between Puppy and Adulthood.

I'm beginning to suspect my little 10-week-old Sammy is going to go from Black to Silver.

I'd love to know what the typical pattern for this is, do they all tend to change at the same age?...Does a large percentage of Poodles change colours, or is it a rare phenomenon? I'd really never heard of this.

Black to Silver, Brown to Beige I think, dark red to light red?

I can see what I think is silver in the under-fur on his sides. Is that a for-sure?

Thank you so much for all this information. You've got a mere x-Black Lab owner here, where your puppy ends up, um, black:eat: Perhaps Sammy's going to be a bit more of a surprise package.

At 10 weeks and counting, Sammy hasn't got any white on him whatsoever, just some of the denser fur, closer to his skin, is a tad silver. Perhaps he's going to be a Blue (never even HEARD of that one before, I live and learn. Fun discussion about my new toy (pun intended) and new best friend, thanks very much. (when I'm on the other computer I'll post another photo, promise)
