What does "white factor" have to do with anything?

Justicemom · Nov 24, 2015

I would say yes.

Forgive me but I want to zombie this thread....I really like CHWs and read up on the white factoring on several sites...but reading is one thing, experienced opinions are another.

I understand one can't be certain on looks alone but would you guess Sansa is white factored? She seems to have all the indicators of being white factored?

It looks like it. Also I just wanted to say she is turning out to be so pretty! I love her colors. :yes:

Sansa is gorgeous!!!! I'm hardly impartial though - I have a CHW and I think she's the most beautiful girl, and everyone who sees her tells me how stunning she is. Here's a photo:

Thanks for all opinions and compliments!!

I'm really happy with how Sansa is turning out but I must say that while her colors seem bizarre and striking to many people over here (That's not a sheltie! haha) she's quite the sweet dog and already turned a few people around me into sheltie lovers. I remember my previous sheltie doing the same to a family who baby-sat her me while on vacation. I really couldn't have picked a sweeter pup.

Cara - Your CHW is amazing! Just look at that white fluff!! I can't wait til Sansa's tail fills in! (words I know I'll regret when I'm brushing it in the future)

Now that she can jump up on the bed, she's claimed it as hers :gaah

Hmmmmm - They seem to be a very "claimey" breed. Someone had a post up about sheltie ownership rules recently. I gather that they own all that they survey. What am I letting myself in for?! Lol! :lol:
