Forum Rules | 1. Here we prefer clarity to agreement. Obviously not everyone is going to agree on a topic; here we prefer to talk out our differences in a respectful manner to ensure mutual understanding and respect. 2. Read the Stickies and Announcements. Each sub-forum may have specific rules which trump the Forum Rules in cases where there may be conflicting information. Read the rules of each board before you post so that you are clear on the expectations of the staff. 3. Respect ALL Staff and Admins. These people volunteer of their time and MUST be respected as well as their word adhered to. They are responsible for maintaining a free, open, clear and organized forum. Anyone found to be openly undermining any official ruling by a staff member will be warned. 4. Signatures: One picture only and no links. Images: To keep the forum looking neat and tidy, we ask that members insert just one picture only in their signatures. The picture should be no more than 200x500 pixels and should be of an appropriate subject, for example, your dogs and their names. Should you need assistance creating an appropriate signature, please PM an Admin and we would be happy to help! This is to ensure that signatures remain a welcome addition to our forum instead of a cumbersome distraction. Links: Hyperlinks in signatures--unless to a personal blog or photo stream of your dogs (like Flckr or Piscasa, for example)--are strictly prohibited. Please PM a staff member with any questions or concerns regarding this rule. |

| As the subject reads, I am curious as to how common it is for a Sibe to have a black tipped tail? Does it fall within breed standards, or does it hint at a possible mix? Can't say I have ever seen one in person, so I just looking for a bit of education. Thanks! |

| Siberians have no coat color fault or eye color fault as many other breeds do. Siberians come in any color ranging from black to white with as many if not more variations of possible markings. This is from the standard for their tail: - Quote :
- Tail
The well-furred tail of fox-brush shape is set on just below the level of the topline, and is usually carried over the back in a graceful sickle curve when the dog is at attention. When carried up, the tail does not curl to either side of the body, nor does it snap flat against the back. A trailing tail is normal for the dog when in repose. Hair on the tail is of medium length and approximately the same length on top, sides and bottom, giving the appearance of a round brush. Faults: A snapped or tightly curled tail; highly plumed tail; tail set too low or too high. No fault for color on tail either. (as a note: Agouti Siberians often have black tipped tails) _________________ |

| I'm going to say, not very common. Most of the ones you see have white tipped tails, but I did see one with a black tipped tail at a dog show once! But yeah, doesn't mean it's a mix! Siberians can be any color! Just not all color patterns like merle. _________________ -Sara |
