"A puppy of around four months, that has changed the color on its head from black to gray to a very pale sooty color, will as an adult enrich all the tan areas to a clear golden tan. The blue will follow the correct manner of transition from black to blue starting to do so around six months. The coat texture will be the correct silky type."
Thank you so much, Nancy. I did read that, but then got off on the subject of what exactly does "sooty" look like and then why is it desirable. So this explains the "why" it's desirable. The coat texture will be correct and the coat color will be the Yorkshire Terrier standard, Steel Blue & Gold. My Doc fits this description. I'll document his progress, and post photos so we can all see how this plays out. Very Interesting.
