Yes, Todd is right, it is common for chocolate dogs to fade. My standard Poodle was very dark chocolate and we thought that he would hold his color but after about 4 years he started to fade. He is very different in his coloring...you can't tell by the pics but he has an unusual "frosted" look...one vet I took him to (she was a breeder) said, "Look at his beautiful coloring! I have never seen anything like this...if he is a breeder, you have an excellent color!" (I was so happy!)
