Hello Guys,

Just wondering if any of you have ever experienced this before? I never noticed it until my girlfriend pointed it out. Is that typical for sables with their puppy hair? It is especially noticeable on our puppy because he has primarily black on him. See photo. When you rub his hair with the grain it looks black, but when you rub against the grain it is white.

I find his coat to be rather interesting! I am only asking out of curiosity!

An update: it seems that almost all his black puppy fuzz is turning grey in colour. Is this a typical thing that happens with a specific coat type (black and tan, sable, etc.)?
I will add there are no silver sables in the pedigree. Just dark sables with tan/red undercoats, black and reds, and pure black.
