Re: Mismark?

Tina @ Tyric
I had a litte years ago. One black had a small white spot on her chest and larger than large bolos on her front. No white on tail. The bolos stayed ,the chest spot vanished. She was of course my pick pup. Bred to anothet By and all the pups had significant bolos that went up the back of the wrist. By 8 weeks: they weren't very noticeable. She's just now had a litter of 3-all with bolos up the back of the wrist and now at 18 days old: disappearing. If only hers would have vanished!! She still finished her CH up here and she's a lovely girl!
When you say large -how huge do you mean. We should compare our pedigrees one day!!


I guess "HUGE" was not exactly a good discription. Her bolo's are not that large (up the whrist), just spots behind her pads are filled with white and in between her toes. Our other litters that have had bolos have been smaller then hers and also fade by 8-12 weeks, so hers are bigger then what we are use to. She has a couple white nails on each paw and pink splash still on one of her pads. I also forgot to mention that she has a white spot on her chin and just below her nose.

I remember when we were at a show one year, there was this beautiful black male that had VERY noticable bolos. He was a gorgeous boy and I didn't think anything of his bolos when drooling over him lol. I only wish I would have gotten a catalog to see who he was :( So I do not mind the bolos, or the white on her chest, I just worry about the other white areas like the tip of her tail and her chin(I can't believe I left that out). The white below her nose is very small, so I do believe that will go away with age.

Re: Mismark?

In my last litter my keeper girl had white on her chin and some white on the bottom of her feet. She is now 9 months old and the white on her chin has just about disappeared...her one brother had bolos on the back of his front feet. They will probably remain but may fade a bit.
