If they are modified silk or soft/cotton coat it can sometimes take up to two years to completely clear, which means the blue/gold color.. I have also noticed the modified coat will clear before a soft/cotton coat will.. Sometimes a soft/cotton coat will not clear completely and that will give the dog a sooty look on the head or face or both.. Sometimes they will also have what is referred to as a thumbprint on the top of their head.. Also on the modified silk the blue on the back will be a dark blue and on a soft/cotton coat the back is usually black..


Breakout??? Thumbprint??? What does that mean?? Bella is so incredibly soft, and thick! She is 7 weeks, when can you start to tell the texture? Does the baby hair have to fall out?? I had She-Ra from a baby and hers took forever to even grow, and I got Harley at 3 months, so I didn't get to see his spurt either. Sharon says that Sophie, Bella's mom is blue and tan and I know that her male Kirby is Blue/tan. Think that Bella will too???
