Is she a very pale "vanilla" or cream color with white markings, instead of rust?

My sister and brother in law own a fawn dobie with very light rust markings, he turned two last month and no health issue or coat issues *knock on wood*. Beautiful dog, it's funny because he's not a "normal" looking dobie people will be all over him and then ask his breed. Once they have the answer I've seen SO many people snatch their hand back, it's quite funny

She's pale. The Fiance says im colorblind, but she almost looked pink. lol

White Or Z-Factored? I think that's what it's called?

Do you have AKC papers on your Dobe? It sounds like his dam might be an albino. The easiest way to tell is to look at the AKC paperwork. An albino Dobe, or a Dobe that might carry for albino is designated with a Z in their registration number. So, instead of having WS at the beginning of the number, they will have a WZ.

Just thought I'd give an update on the Dobes ears. They turned out really good as far as I can tell right now. No crying, just a little itchy for him. He's been a trooper. We go in Monday to have them re-taped.

Cute boy, I remember my Dobe had a rack, her ears never bothered her either and they came out beautiful, they look so elegant with a nice crop.

Yes, I agree 100% we get a lot of people say "aww that poor puppy" but I like the look better. They look so much sleeker.
