​
Coat & Colours
The coat is of medium length and may be straight or wavy, with moderate feathering present on the backs of the legs. Both sexes have a moderate mane and frill, though it is generally more pronounced in dogs than in bitches. The undercoat varies according to the climate in which the dog dwells.
​
Recognized coat colors in the breed are black, blue merle, red merle, and red (liver). With the solid coat pattern we have black tri and red tri dogs. Blue merle looks like splashes of black against a gray or powder blue background. Red merle looks like red or brown splashes against a buff or silver background.
Our Pups
Our puppies are born in the house and are raised underfoot, not in a barn or outside. They're part of our family from day one until they can be part of your family! All puppies are handled many times every day by us and our house is made to fit them as they grow. We raise the puppies following Puppy Culture techniques
