Wondering about Color Change??

Hi I have a 10 week old little girl whos mama was a redheaded tri and daddy was a red n white. Now she looks pretty black still and Im just wondering if she will lighten up? Also we r going to put a deposit on a male tomarrow and I got a pic of him and uploaded it into my album titled (Goober butt) hes only 3 weeks with a very redheaded tri mama and a red with black frost color dad. The lady says he will lighten up alot but Im not sure. My hubby is really picky and wants a very red corgi theres just no red n whites were we live right now. If someone who knws corgi pupys and how their color changes, cld look at my pics and let me knw what u thing it wld be so very appreciated!! Thanx all and God bless!!

The breeder we got her from showed me a picture of the red headed momma as a pup and she had a very black head and now all of her head is red. Our pup zoey has a dark head right now but only having her a week i can see her colors starting to lighten up and get a red tinge coming through. Looking at your pup I'm not sure what she will do. This link could be helpful. It shows pictures of other members dogs as they age and the color change. Plus the discussion is pretty helpful.

Comment by Potus on May 20, 2011 at 1:07am: Potus is the son of a tri mum and a red and white dad, and whilst he had a bit of black on him as a pup its mostl gone- he's lightened up except for a few stray hairs (mostly on his tail) and a bit of a darker shade on his ears. The majority of his siblings turned out red and white.

Going by your photos, I think they may remain quite black, but I am not an expert- can only go by my experience with my dog and his mothers litters.
