Hey Stubbs...it is very common for the younger pups to have the appearance of being sable but as they grow and get their adult coats to shed all that out. Some say to have some black hairs in the coat or any black on the face is a sable but to me that is questionable. For Example..my Kiara has black on her ears and around her muzzle and throughout her body but I don't consider her a sable like Meagan. My new pup has black hairs on her back and on her face and so far am considering her a light sable. We shall see. Some pups that are real prominant as being sable are the ones w/a lot black around the face. You can see the shadowing and look at the root of the hairs as well.

Hey Jenny, several people have thought our little girl Chloe was a sheltie mix. She has a very narrow face for a corgi though. I will admit that while she is obviously all corgi to me, someone who didn't know the breed could easily mistake ours for a mix because her colors are just like a collie or sheltie's.

One time we were at the dog park and there was a beautiful sheltie and everyone kept commenting on how their markings were so similar despite their bodies being so very different!

I have had two kids call leon a chihuahua, one lady mistake him for being "the dog they had on those taco bell commercials," and one d*ck call him a cat. I blame the chihuahua thing on that disney movie they had a bit ago, so that with the kids I can excuse, the lady I politely corrected telling her "no, he's the queen's royal dog, you're thinking of chihuahuas", but the guy who thought it was funny to call leon a cat, was just being rude. He thought it would be funny to harass and then stalk me down the street with his friends just because my dog looked a little different. We also have another guy who we'll see on our walks every-so-oft who leon loves, who is convinced he's a 'Spuds MacKenzie dog'. :)

I'm a little curious, at what point does a corgi stop being sable and start being a red? When we got leon, he was labled a sable, and you could see it, but as he's grown up the sabling seems to have gotten lighter and thinner. Now it's only very light on his back, you actually have to go searching though his fur to see it, and on his ears, which is more noticeable, but only if you're actually looking.

What??? Noway Jenny..Ziggy looks nothing like a mini collie/sheltie. I guess if someone doesn't really know it could be a mistake. Sables are great. I am partial to them.

Hurray for Sables!!! I love my little man and his beautiful markings. Sables seem to be hard to find. My mom wants one. It would be great if I could clone Brodey, but I don't even know who his breeder was since I am his second mom. If anyone knows of a breeder near Virginia that produces sables, please let me know. Thanks!

From just looking at the profile picture you have she looks to be red and white.

The breeder advertised my Heidi as Sable and White, but I'm thinking she's more of a red... anyone have any opinions?

Thank you Jenny. I love this girl to pieces. She is awesome and such a character.
