Coat color

Could anybody help me with the color of the following imports?

Squire Of Ballyduff KCSB 2157BJ
Kupros Kirsch KCR D368321D8
Fredwell Never Say Die O'Blaircourt KCSB 716BD 113710/67
Fredwell Coquet KCR 174947/72

I got those numbers of an AKC pedigree.

Thanks for any help. You can PM me.

Gail, here's a database I've found really helpful for questions like this and sometimes there's pictures available too:

Re: Coat color

Thank you all for your answers. At least now, I know why Ch Ashridge Robin Hood (black)/Windswept Cinnamon Twist (4 generations all chocolate) pups were black. I'm not complaining, because it was a great litter. Just curious.

It was a surgical from 20 frozen. 5 boys and 5 girls- all black.

Thanks again.

Just curious, does it matter that Cinnamon Twist was 4 generations chocolate (and yes she IS chocolate). I would assume Robin Hood was a dominant black, thus when bred to a chocolate, produced all black. ETA: 100% BC pups.... not Half the pups should be BB and half BC. Or am I missing something?

Re: Coat color

The sire may have been a By and the dam being from an solid chocolate background was pure for chocolate. So unless the sire carried chocolate, the resulting litter would be all black.

I am assuming that Cinnamon Twist is chocolate herself. If so the puppies would all be Bc, notwithstanding that the sire may have been a By which in such case the odds are that 1/2 the litter would be Bc and the other half would be Byc. We have DNA testing for color now. Should be easy to determine if the breeder tested the pups.
