Purple pits.... Did I miss the memo?

Apparently there are purple pits out there... you guessed it breeding rednosed dogs to bluenosed dogs is producing what people are calling purple pits.
I had a "scholar of the breed" you know one of those great human being that thinks that his dogs bloodline consists of "american blues" or "UKC PR champion bloodline"... Its really getting hard not to hurt people feelings when they say this stuff out loud.
Seriously before they speak they should say it once in your mind, and think about it before you open your mouth and insert your foot.

sad, sad, sad.

 

let me know when they come out with purple pits with green polk-a-dots...lol

 

Lmao..............

 

they've had this designer color called lilac for awhile now...

 

Great!Just another reason for people to breed for color,the wrong reasons.

 

I'm kinda fond of the purple and fusia brindle with the turquoise nose. Thats one hell of a show dog! ...lol

 

What does a lilac dog look like?
any one have a pir or able to find one online... i cant seem to locate one.

 

I've been looking for a while, but I couldn't find any pictures. Someone post a link, please.

 

From what i've red "lilac is a delute form of blue. If you scroll down on this link it shows a pic of "lilac". It close to the bottom.

This is lilac?

 

Good post, I learned about every color.

 

I thought it would be more purple, too.

 

Looks like the lilac was touched up some. The grass color looks toned down to me.

 

LILAC - It is the isabella (dilute) form of blue just as the champagne is the isabella of red. Coat color appears a silvery purplish tint. Some would call this silver fawn. Skin is pale gray and eyes are pale blue. Nose is medium gray.

(thats the definition i found) Ive seen better examples but i cant find the website anymore..

 

What Happend To Just Plain Old Game Dogs Not Bred For Color Or Anything Like That.i Mean U Seen Black And Tans But You Rarely Seen All These Other Colors That They Are Saying Is Rare.i'll Take My Bulldogs Just Like They Have Always Been Thanks.

 

Here you go...silver fawn...LOL

 

Speaking of black and tan. Did anyone else notice they had black and tan & tri color listed. They two colors are the same thing, just one has more white markings... Geeze. (Sorry, pet peeve of mine...)

 

Why did the "Lilac" color just now go down. I seen the pic less than a few hours ago.

 

Who knows. Could be the same reason our "friends" stuff happens to disappear each time someone catches on to the new scheme.

 

Because alot of these "colors" were around (with the exception of "merle") but no one gave them fancy names to sell them. All most of these colors are is a cast to the coat.. I've gotten peds with just "brindle" as the color lol. But Ive also seen great dogs called "silver" this or that..

My opinion, take it or leave it, is just how nit picky the breeder wanted to get with defining the colors of their dogs.. and the rest just call them fancy colors to get more money...
