What color would you say this is?

Doodlesville · 09-09-2008, 01:18 AM

Cafe au Lait or Lavender?

Jac · 09-09-2008, 03:08 AM

Nancy, it may be the lighting or just my eyes...but I'd say apricot! LOL

He's a cutie pie though!!

Diane at DVL · 09-09-2008, 07:04 AM

Maybe Parchment??

A Little more info

He was A Chocolate/Carmel as a puppy
does anyone have a picture of a lavendar? compared to a cafe au lait?

lmtoth2 · 09-09-2008, 11:28 AM

as a total non-expert

I'd say from the link provided in this thread and your description that I would think he/she is a parchment. what a cute doodle!!

You are right thank you

As Jac said, my first response was apricot. I don't see any chocolate in that picture.

Isn't the difference between cafe au lait and lavender supposed to be determined by how/when they change from chocolate? I did study this a bit because of Chip and decided he was cafe au lait.

But he and your pup really don't look the same color at all to me.
Unless it's the lighting which I know can make a HUGE difference.
Chips coloring in bright light:

Maybe just call his color CUTE? He really is that!
Here are examples and explanations of the cafe au lait and lavender.

Been out of town and just saw this thread.

I'd say parchment, if you go by the info in the links given.

We decided Coco's chocolate, a hint of lavender-silvering, blonde color is called
"sprindle".....a chocolate, sprinkled with other stuff.

Can you see the purpley brown color in there?? Certain light does show it more.....she has another year to change some more....don't have a clue what she will truly end up as yet!!
