Default Bicolour?

Hello folks,

I was just wondering if anyone had any idea what colourings my 10 week old GSD may have when she's older? Will she be bicolour? She doesn't have many light patches at the minute. Her belly is completely black too. Thanks

I've had two bi-colors. The lower color continues to move up until maturity sometimes into the face.

Our puppies color can change alot. What color were the parents and what does your breeder think?

Beautiful puppy no matter where the black ends up (or not )

Thank you

Her dad is bicolour and her mum is very light saddle. Breeder thinks bicolour or blanket.

Does not look like a bicolor to me. She may end up being a Blanket Black and Tan but I see a lot of tan already and she will get more and more tan as time goes.

Very nice. No a bi-color, as she already has lots of tan above her legs...

Looks like she'll be a melanistic black and tan. I don't see penciling on the feet and it looks like her heels are tan at this point. The light coloring on the face will also become more prominent as well.
She's a cutie, enjoy!

very cute)) and no I don't see bicolor either, they change so much as they grow, and usually quite dark when very young unless they are sables of course

Definitely a black and tan, and I bet she'll end up being a saddle back not a blanket back. She's already got quite a bit of tan on her.
