There is one sure way to tell the color of the adult coat. Get a black dog.
Justice was very light as a puppy with a black tail and now so dark he looks black in the right light. He is much darker than his mother who is pure for sable. His dad was biblack.
You can see his baby pictures in his album.http://www.sheltieforums.com/album.php?albumid=170
watching Jocu grow up after watching Cranberry- it was kind of a big letdown- nothing much changed except his blaze got a little skinnier.....
