I personally would not have a dog that was as light as you're describing in my breeding program as it's really hard to bring color back in, but I don't mind one being a little on the lighter side. The goal is a dark steel blue, however.
Anyway, with that said, if you know the sire is that light then there could be a very good chance that your puppy will turn out that light as an adult. Also, be really careful as there are a lot of bad breeders in Texas... Good luck finding your puppy. | I am not a breeder but wanted to ask since the mom is darker and the dad lighter is there more chance it will take after the sire? |
