Colin, Gypsy isn't that blonde colour very often, as Kendal says she's drawn to mud like a magnet!!!!!!!! |

Oh dear - like I say I was just looking
The coat that Gypsy has - is that a 'wavy' coat or a 'curly' coat?
I've had a photograph of a puppy taken (7 days old) and it is impossible to tell from the pictures and my ignorance how the puppy will look when it is older.

with gypsy it is more curly when it is fairly short and when left to grow slightly it becomes more of a wave!
but they are very soft and cuddly! _________________ Cockapoo's...a little of this, a little of that..........
the perfect combination!

if you google cockapoos and look at images it should show you lots of them when they are older.
have you ever seen a poodles coat?
when the girls have been blow dried and brushed like when they come out of the groomers, they are very similar and the hair poofs out the same but is softer than the poodle.
when they are just left and there coat settles naturally, it curls slightly but is much more relaxed than the poodle which has a relay tight curl.
hope that makes seance, our two will be 2 this month and next.
Gypsy's birthday is this coming Thursday only just relished that.
I dont thing the girls coats will change any more than they have. Inca has white and gray hairs dotted about her coat (just single strands that she has had from when she was a puppy) and she has always had lots or gray hairs in between her pads.
She will eventually go gray in the face and will probably look older than Gypsy in time even though she is the youngest.
this was Gypsy when we got her, we got a bit upset when she first came back from the groomers, as all her apricot coat had gone, mum described her as Larryry the lamb look-a-like
as for body type our two are completely different. Gypsy is more poodle as she has a sleeker and more athletic frame, where as Inca Carrys more Wait although she is not fat and has a wider ribcage, which she has inherited from her mother (cocker).
It is interesting to see the difference in our two as they share the same dad (poodle) but there mothers were completely different, one being more working stock (sleek with a shorter coat) and the other more show stock(heavier set with a longer coat)
i think i have just overwhelmed you with info, if anything doesn't make seance just ask.
hope i have helped and not confused you _________________ microchiping and grooming www.chipnclip.co.uk
