congrats and gl to you and your new baby
My pups are 12 weeks with no white or light color coming through. There are only some gold streaks coming through the tops of their heads, as for their backs, it's black.
What does modified coat mean? Their parents are champion show dogs. I've seen the pictures and have seen all the documentation and the dogs. They look beautiful. The breeder told me that they have extraordinary coats (the pups that is).
