Foxxy is a sable dog. This means she has the agouti genetics that give her a reddish coat with black. She has stiff black hairs between her shoulder blades and on her tail. There are also black hairs on her lips although you can't see those as well because her lips and nose are also black. she also is color diluted (chinchilla) which is why she looks more tan than red. Underneath those red tips is bone cream fur. We shaved her in a lion cut for spring and where we shaved was completely cream for about two weeks with the exception of the black hairs between her shoulders and a darker muzzle stripe.

Lots of people think her coat looks like a golden retriever But she's not recessive red. Now, we're nt probably going to shave her ever again, but she sure looked like a cute little lion with her mane up front and short hair in back with this wonderfully plumed tail
