Jim2000 Posted April 2, 2007 Report Share Posted April 2, 2007 Ok here is my stupid question what color would Kaylie be considered I have heard some people describe her color as Red , but I have also heard other people describe the Brown dogs as reds also so which is it is she red or gold or something else?

MrSnappy Posted April 2, 2007 Report Share Posted April 2, 2007 Depends where you are. I think the Aussie call this colour red, and they call the brown dogs "chocolate" or something. In North America, people call your dog "Aussie Red" or sometimes "Lemon." I call it "the colour of Woo." RDM Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Katelynn & Gang Posted April 2, 2007 Report Share Posted April 2, 2007 I call it "the colour of Woo." I love it! Who could come up with something better then THAT for a color?! That just cannot ever be topped! Katelynn Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WyoBC Posted April 2, 2007 Report Share Posted April 2, 2007 I call it "the colour of Woo." RDM I vote to call it that. I always just call them reds if they're not B&W, but as far as I know there's only one BC colored that way around here and they call it light red. So I guess it's up to you Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kat's Dogs Posted April 2, 2007 Report Share Posted April 2, 2007 I like the Colour of Woo. Although around here, with BCs it is usually called "tan" and with Aussies of the SAME color it is "red", with most other dogs it is "brown". Strange, I know. But you can't go wrong with anything called "woo" so I would go with that! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Katelynn & Gang Posted April 2, 2007 Report Share Posted April 2, 2007 I believe they called it "ee" red in the conformation rings. Katelynn Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
quicksilver Posted April 2, 2007 Report Share Posted April 2, 2007 I believe they called it "ee" red in the conformation rings. Yep, she looks like a dilute red. Though a friend's normal red tri, when he's been out in the sun a lot, ends up with a bleached coat that could be mistaken for a dilute red.

abbies_mumma Posted April 2, 2007 Report Share Posted April 2, 2007 They call it red down here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rebecca, Irena Farm Posted April 2, 2007 Report Share Posted April 2, 2007 She's not dilute red, she's ee yellow which is something different, and the more-or-less universal term for this color. It's golden retreiver color. Or, the color of Woo, which is very good and what I will use in the future. One interesting thing - I'd have to see her in "person" but I think in addition to being ee, I think her base color is bb, making her nose leather that patchy pink.

Root Beer Posted April 2, 2007 Report Share Posted April 2, 2007 My thought when I saw your dog was "red", but a lighter shade of red. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
juliepoudrier Posted April 2, 2007 Report Share Posted April 2, 2007 The dogs we call red in the US are genetically liver/brown (for example, the three red dogs in my sig line). The dog you picture is genetically red/yellow, but what we here in the US would call Aussie red to distinguish it from our genetically brown dogs, which we call red. Clear as mud? J.

nancy in AZ Posted April 2, 2007 Report Share Posted April 2, 2007 She is a cutie, for sure. This site may answer your question: http://www.gis.net/~shepdog/BC_Museum/Perm...C_ColorTan.html My Kit is similarly colored: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SoloRiver Posted April 2, 2007 Report Share Posted April 2, 2007 Looks like "Australian red" (i.e., Golden Retriever color) with a "dudley" nose. (The nose color is supposed to be black, as are lips and eyerims, but sometimes it is faded.) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jim2000 Posted April 2, 2007 Author Report Share Posted April 2, 2007 well thanks for all the responses and clearing that up for me, I think i guess i shall just call her Woo colored. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
