Black trindle pieds are basically identical to pure black pieds, since they have white lower legs such that there is no brindling.  They could have a tiny bit of coloring on their cheeks, but most just look like pure blacks.  They have sleek black coats in the non-white areas, with no brindling, so it makes a gorgeous contrast to the white basecoat.  We will post videos of some trindle pieds in the near future. Reyna is a darling black trindle pied, which means she carries a copy of the brindle gene and the genetics for tan points.  Since the only area any significant brindling will show up on a trindle is the lower legs, and since her lower legs are white, and will therefore not show brindling, she looks like a pure black.  She also carries the blue and the chocolate genes, so she can produce any color that Frenchies come in, depending on which male we breed her to. With her beautiful conformation and looks, along with her small size, we have many great options.

Chocolate trindle pieds look like pure chocolate pieds, since their lower legs are white and brindling cannot be seen.  They have the same pure chocolate coat with no brindling (with maybe just a tiny bit on the cheeks), and they have the same beautiful yellow-gold eyes.  Reyna and Shazam produced a gorgeous chocolate trindle pied in their litter, and you can see Izzy at about the 2:30 mark.

Sloane & Shazam 6/5/22.  Phoenix is a darling little pure lilac pied that you can see at about the 2:30 mark.  You can contrast her color with that of her pure blue pied brother, Admiral.  Both colors are beautiful.  It just depends on whether you like the darker or lighter gray color, and of course, the lilacs have the lighter colored eyes as adults.

Annie & Summit 6/5/22.  Molly is a gorgeous lilac trindle pied, but since pieds have white lower legs, she will look like a pure lilac pied.  The difference between the two is that trindles carry a copy of the brindle gene, whereas the pure lilacs do not, but the only place you will see a difference is on the lower legs of the trindles.  You can see Molly at about the 6:20 mark.

Tempe & Hog 7/2/21.  Norman is a handsome little lilac trindle boy that you can see at about the 2:30 mark.  His sister, Allison, is also a lilac trindle that you can see at about the 6:50 mark.  They have the genetics to be lilac & tans, except that they carry a single copy of the dominant brindle gene.  This means that they can have a little brindling on the points areas on the lower legs, cheeks, brows, and bum, but some have almost none and look more like pure lilacs.

Julie & Cruz 7/8/21.  Julie and Cruz have had some gorgeous puppies in their three litters, including our extremely handsome lilac fawn stud, Summit.  One of their wonderful puppies is lilac sable Brooks, that you can see at about the 5:50 mark.   He looks similar to blue sables and chocolate sables, except that he will have the lighter hazel, blue-gray eyes that lilacs are known for.  The difference between a fawn and a sable is generally a single copy of tan points or recessive black.  They don’t manifest completely, since they are both recessive genes, but they often manifest as sabling on otherwise fawn puppies. 

Lilac fawn pieds are quite rare and beautiful as they are created from a double copy of blue, a double copy of chocolate, and a double copy of the pied gene.  As with all lilacs, they will have gorgeous eyes that can be hazel, blue gray, or yellow gold. Buttercup & Summit 7/14/22.  Inigo is a daring lilac fawn pied boy that you can see at about the 3:06 mark. Lindsey & Summit 1/28/22.  Lulu is a sweet little lilac fawn girl that you can see at about the 4:23 mark. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4pPiIIQ8g0ohttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kcL737oksck

Ella & Bo 1/7/22.  DJ is a beautiful chocolate & tan pied girl with excellent conformation.  Since she is a pied, you will not see the points on her lower legs, but you can see the tan starting to come out on her cheeks and brows.  Points often become more prominent as puppies age.  You can see her at about the 5:40 mark.
