It is not valid when puppies are very young. Most, including me, do not use the color for judging the coat til the puppy is past 6 months. That is one of the reasons show owners keep their sow potetial til past that age. Puppy coats usually are softer that the adult coat if the adult is silk. Cottony, or wooly, is about the same in puppies in adults, in my experience.. |
