Do real poodles come in brindle?

(This is not Ryan.)

[JessLough]

Well I only wanted to answer if it was Ryan.

Really has no idea

"Real" poodle hahaha, I love you.

I don't know, but you could probably get a stuffed poodle toy that is brindle.

And this was absolutely a legitimate question.

ETA: Someone is claiming to breed brindle poodles, and I just didn't know if that was legit, or it it was like brindle pugs. Brindle poodles would be awesome.

No brindle is not a part of the breed, poodles are only accepted in solid colors and they are:

white
black
grey
brown
red
apricot

They are some partis (two colored) and phamtoms (wit tan markings) but they are not allowed to show as is an instant DQ , however in some clubs they can be shown.

Other color like brindle and sables must likely came from a mix wit other breed

They also come in blue, cafe au lait, cream, silver, and silver beige. Add in a parti gene and you've got those colors in parti version. Though I have never seen a "grey" poodle, they've always either been blue or silver. "shrug". Brindles, sables, parti, and phantoms are poodle colors, they are just not registrable with some clubs. But they are still poodles.

Yes, but the dilutes are only allowed to be show at AKC, in FCI they can't be shown, only the ones I described, if I'm not mistaken the grey is the AKC silver.


FCI is also a lot more strict in how defined the colors should look.

COLOUR: Solid colour: black, white, brown, grey, orange fawn (apricot) and red fawn.

Brown: Should be deep, rather dark, uniform and warm. Beige and its paler derivatives are not admitted.

Grey: Must be uniform, deep, neither blackish nor whitish.

Orange fawn: Must be uniform without tending to pale fawn, cream or red fawn.

Red fawn: Must be uniform over the entire body. It must never tend to orange fawn.

Eyelids, nose, lips, gums, palate, natural orifices, scrotum and pads are well pigmented.

The question wasn't what poodles are show quality... The question was if they come in certain colour/patterns.

Pet or show quality does not decide if a dog is purebred.

I believe that yes, two registered purebred poodles can produce the occasional brindle poodle. It could certainly be a mutation. It is also possible that another breed snuck into that line at some point back. No one would ever admit to that though..

Kind of like those silver labs...many of them look very obviously Weimeraner and Lab, though they are 'registered' with no trace of it.
