| Kingsley is the same color and his breeder said he was a red. He's also registered as a red/white. |

| Red and white.
There's the copper red (your pup) and the light red (like my female in my signature). _________________ |

| I have always called her a copper, but I have never heard "copper" as a show/breed standard color. I just don't know. Red has always been lighter than Phoenix in my mind. Calling her a copper makes me feel kind of snobby, but calling her a red has gotten me dirty looks like I'm an idiot or something. Lol. For me there has always been the light red like Claudia's female, the copper red like my Phoenix, and then the red, which is basically the in between of the other two. |

| Awww...I have a matching husky! I think as a breed standard, "red" is the true color with variations of red. Any husky with a liver-colored nose has the red gene and is considered red. However, of the shades of red, ours would be considered copper. |

| I call my girls, Sophie and Maya red. But if i'm being more specific, talking to husky people, or talking about colors i call them copper. Many people have called my girls brown but i just say they're red. |

| Copper is a variation of red- this dog looks to be a dark copper (or dark red) like the sire of my girls- also registered red/white |

90% of people say our girl is brown too. Only a select few have actually called her a red. I've had a lot of people ask "is she a rare Husky? I thought Huskies were only black or grey and white". I just laugh and let them know Huskies come in a variety of colors I agree with everyone, she's a copper |

| For the lighter reds it would be considered light red, not dilute. Dilute occurs a lot with our "blue" dogs (such as some pit bulls and weims) as well as can affect the whole coloring since it is a gene. Aussies: http://www.ashgi.org/color/dilute_aussies.htm Doberman: Even cats: Husky coat colors lighten due to the amount of white present in the coat. _________________ Force Free Training ThreadCheyenne, Mishka, Mickey, Rodeo, & Odin Are you a Husky owner in South Florida?!

| People always think Maya is a boy, guess she just looks manly to some. I wonder how crazy people would get if you had a red pie bald... |
