BLACK Sable

**JeanKBBMMMAAN** · 04-01-2008, 09:59 PM

Hello!

Annalise is a rescue I got from TN. She's only about 50# so just a lean little thing.

I had not seen coloring like hers and then found this thread (and if it's not okay to post that or the picture please do delete):
http://www.vomdomburgerland.nl/forum...er=asc&start=0

And the dog in the first post looks amazingly like Anna. Actually kind of looks like a combo of Anna and Nina (my black FGSD) because the dog in that link has a head more like Nina's.

The thread gets interesting because it seems that having such a dark sable is a little controversial. Is there an issue with that dog being all dog or is it just one of those form over function type things?

All I know is that is the first black sable I have seen, other than Risa, that looks like Anna. Of course I stay on this site, so that could be it!

So are there more like this or is this more of an anomaly (or however you spell it)?

Hubba Hubba! What a beauty!

I remember some pictures that are often posted of a stunning dark or black sable named Luke, I think? The owner refers to him as the "Thug"? I can't stop staring at those pics when he posts them! Absolutely gorgeous! Your girl looks very similar! Very beautiful!

Wow she is gorgeous!

I am proud to say I have a 5 mo. old black GSD who will most likely look like this handsome one. He too has some grey on his legs which I am sure will stand out as he ages. They are unique and uncommon. I love him to death.

She is a beautiful dog. Gotta be a sable, she has that "wolf" look to her which I have noticed in winter pictures of her also. Sooo Sooo Pretty!

Here is another dark BLACK sable. Though he looks different than the one origionally posted.

This is "Aron".

Droooooooool for the DARK sables. They definately remind me a bit of Ris, who looks even darker because of her short coat and lack of undercoat.

*HUGS* to Anna!

Gracie's brother Ghost is also dark, maybe Kris (simlpysleepie) will post some of him. I don't have any current pictures.

I agree Luke/Thug is one of the most handsome dark sables I've ever seen.

I am still seeing black with tan/brown points and not simply black with silver (except Anna's cousin Ris!)? I don't think there is any brown on Annie and don't see brown, I don't think, on this dog from that thread I posted:

WHOA! That picture is too big to put in this thread-here is the link again: http://www.vomdomburgerland.nl/forum...er=asc&start=0

Not that this matters in the least! I didn't know if this was something that certain lines might have-the black and <span style="color: #999999">silvering</span> because under all the fear, Annalise has a most excellent temperament and incredible intelligence.
