Thank you both for taking the time to explain your perspectives on this as breeders and explain why. Really helps to get information from people who are knowledgeable and reputable in what they do.
(Pine, I have the same preferences as you do not for any other reasoning other than the look)
I love black button noses (why I have a true 'blond' {cutsy owner term} {aka true yellow in Germany or true white in the USA} miniature schnauzer-they are actually a black with the absence of color genetically and classification speaking-wonder why its so different between breeds-?-Breezeaway reminds me a lot of Karin Rice in their perspectives-which is a good thing).
I literally know nothing about other colors besides apparently gold is an older 'off color' that came up...in standards...like Partis...wasn't sure if there was a correlation. Nice to have people share their knowledge, it is very appreciated, just reading-especially on the internet gets so conflicting and confusing sometimes, then when you add searching out an subjective idealization, it's almost impossible to get quality information to form an opinion on.

I just have a question, why does a person have and breed blondes,blonde partis , chocolates,Choc partis, reds, red and white partis, Platinum and Platinum and white partis and tri color partis all in the same house? What are they striving to produce? I think it is a fair question. What is their goal to produce?
Yes I tend to be over passionate about some things but I feel if you are breeding should you have a goal? |

I think if you look at the quality of the dogs that are being used for breeding or the pups being produced by someone who has every shade under the sun, you may get a better idea of why they are breeding. I know a few people who are really studying the different color genes, learning as much as they can and are truly trying to improve what they are producing. |
