Cutest new puppy in the Valley

[captp]

After losing Iggy, the Big Fox Red Lab to cancer several months ago, sister Cate & BiL Billy just got another Fox Red from the same breeder. Full brother to Iggy & Spark (same mom & dad).
His official name is Flint, but we usually call him The Terrorist. Brother Spark is the only one of the 3 dogs that gets along with him; he also loves playing with Elmer the Beagle puppy (Billy's grandson's new pup)

With big bro Spark.
We all think he's going to be smaller than his brothers; Spark is a bit over 105lbs & the late Iggy went over 120lbs. My guess is 75-85

Nice looking dog, Georg.

Is it true you have to register the fox red as a yellow lab?

After owning a black lab mix and a Goldendoodle, we decided that we no longer have the stamina to keep up with a large dog. Currently we are without a dog. I am quite envious of you. I love the red coloration. It glistens in the sunlight.

Nice looking dog, Georg.

If you choose to register (at least with the AKC) it registers as a yellow. Genetically, Fox Red is the darkest color phase of yellow.
Not sure if you can show Fox Red in AKC events, except for field trials.

That makes sense, I guess. The color is so beautiful it should have its own AKC designation.

That's one beautiful pup!

I thought I was immune but break-through puppy fever is apparently real thing. I just about tried to reach through the screen to give that handsome pup a scritch.

Agreed, but you can't argue with genetics.
