Details for marriages between colors

At the meeting in Villepinte, it was announced that various information on marriages between colors. Such information is of course valid for France. They are available to all countries for information. Several countries have already consulted us about our policy in this area, we wanted to inform them of changes.

Marriages between basic colors:

From that day, marriages between basic colors will no longer be subject to waiver requests. CCF accepts these marriages in all sizes.

With regard to marriages with white, the CCF committee has reservations.

For the poodles white because of an allele at locus C (as West Highland White Terrier), these marriages do not pose any problems.

As for cons white poodles are genetically swsw is to say for homozygous mottle invasive, it is likely that marriages with black poodles lead to the birth of harlequin dogs.

We encourage breeders poodles willing to marry a white poodle with a black to genetically identify the type of white and not to the marriage if the white is due to the allele for locus C.

CCF for the marriage of a brown with a white will bring nothing and we strongly advise against.

By cons, black with brown marriage can contribute effectively to the improvement of certain points. It is therefore an interesting possibility but in no case should become a habit.

All these remarks are meant to enlighten the breeders but we can not prevent some breeders to play the sorcerer's apprentice and then simply spawning closest to home. This is not what we call the selection. We give specific direction as to our judges to punish all the false colors in three colors (black, brown and white). It may be that we have said black subjects are actually a bluish color that may be true in terms of skin pigmentation.

Fawn red and orange fawn

Faced with the difficulty of classifying the poodles in the good tawny red or orange fawn (apricot), we plan to consolidate all these colors in one color Beast with all its variations of shades. This is a project and we'll talk if it had to be created.

Marriage between the fawn and black

The deer are probably the clearest diluted. If they are with dd, in marrying a black you will produce some blue (color not allowed for the poodle). If they are with cchcch is no problem if you marry a black.

In addition, the "champagne" can be just as many wild highly diluted that false white.

The CCF is not agreed to the marriage between the fawn and black. Again it is a breeding policy in France and other countries, as they have always done, will do what they want. But we wanted to warn the sorcerer's apprentice to marry who enjoy color without knowing the definition of their genetic parents.

Blue Poodle

As was said at the meeting a blue dog blue nose has systematically and this is confirmed by Professor Denis in his book on color in dogs.

The other colors known as blue are actually variations of other colors which is why they do not have the blue nose.

We therefore confirm that the blue poodle is not allowed.

The other colors that you can call blue are in fact wrong colors.
