CANINE COAT AND NOSE COLOR TEST
Poodle

CODE: C128

DNA TEST:
Presence of black, brown and cream coat colors, and black and brown nose in the following breeds:
- Miniature Poodle
- Standard Poodle
- Toy Poodle

BREED STANDARDS FOR COAT & NOSE COLORS:
The coat is an even and solid color at the skin. In blues, grays, silvers, browns, cafe-au-laits, apricots and creams the coat may show varying shades of the same color. This is frequently present in the somewhat darker feathering of the ears and in the tipping of the ruff. While clear colors are definitely preferred, such natural variation in the shading of the coat is not to be considered a fault. Brown and cafe-au-lait Poodles have liver-colored noses, eye-rims and lips, dark toenails and dark amber eyes. Black, blue, gray, silver, cream and white Poodles have black noses, eye- rims and lips, black or self colored toenails and very dark eyes. In the apricots, while the foregoing coloring is preferred, liver-colored noses, eye-rims and lips, and amber eyes are permitted, but are not desirable.
