Any updates spoos4us ?

I know you weren't asking me, but I think I ordered my test after spoos4us and I have my results. I did not do the color testing. I did the NE and VWD. They were very quick and I also chose to add the $7.50 to register with OFA, and I received both of my OFA certificates for the testing today. It still isn't coming up on OFA yet, but my DM test is on OFA(but it was done by OFA). I am interested to see how the color results came out as well, spoos4us?

I didn't even know color tests existed. Amazing!

I have a related question but dont want to steal the thread. If a white and a brown had pups would there be a good chance of white pups having liver points? What about a brown with a silver? There is a local lady with a brown dog who also has a cream/white bitch and a silver bitch and intends to breed them.

If the white dog has brown in the back ground and the brown dog has white in its back ground as well then yes some liver noses can come out. If the white dog already has a liver nose then yes most likely some liver nosed pups

As for the silver and browns you would get silver beige i believe.

Thanks. What is the purpose of the color tests? Can one not look at a dog's pedigree to find out the colors in the dog's background?

Yes you can see info in peds , If your breeding blacks and want to see if they carry the Dilute gene for blue and brown this is where you want to check.

I was going to test Enzo but I think i researched enough to know what he was already

Cream/Brown..... If the Brown carries Cream then you will get Cream Poodles with liver pigment. If the Brown carries no Cream and the Cream dog carries no Brown but has a black nose then you will get all Black puppies.

Brown/Silver ..... If the Silver carries no Brown or Cream then all the puppies will be Black or Blue. Any Browns will likely be Silver Beige.
