CANINE COAT AND NOSE COLOR TEST
English Cocker Spaniel

CODE: C128

DNA TEST:
Presence of black, liver and red colors, and black and brown nose.

BREED STANDARDS FOR COAT & NOSE COLORS:
Parti-colors are either clearly marked, ticked or roaned, the white appearing in combination with black, liver or shades of red. In parti-colors it is preferable that solid markings be broken on the body and more or less evenly distributed; absence of body markings is acceptable. Solid colors are black, liver or shades of red. White feet on a solid are undesirable; a little white on throat is acceptable; but in neither case do these white markings make the dog a parti-color. Tan markings, clearly defined and of rich shade, may appear in conjunction with black, livers and parti-color combinations of those colors. Black and tans and liver and tans are considered solid colors.
