As the pictures above illustrate, Sara is a rather unusual and interesting color.
She is NOT a black tricolor . . . she is a black-shaded sable :)
I know many of you may find that hard to believe, but there has been new genetic research into the coat color of dogs and it has been determined that there is a recessive way to make a black dog!
The presence of the "mask" on Sara's face as well as the banded hairs of her topcoat are all genetic evidence of Sara's true color.
Sara and Apache as puppies.
Both dogs are black-shaded sables.
