I was wondering if any of you know if the darkness of a pups paws by the time they are a week old will tell anything about how dark they will get? We have 5 out of our 8 pups with dark black paws underneath and the other 3 still have pink fleshy paws. Just was wondering! Thanks!

My liver and white ticked GSPs have mottled paws, some with more white or liver than others, so I don't think that's an indication. Your pups sure look liver and white from here! And man are they cute.... must resist urge to get new puppy

Only a black dog can have black leathers, they are just dark brown. But, the ones with white will darken some with age. Some white and liver dogs have a mix of colors on their pads. I do choose for dark, but my white dogs have a white toe or spot and don't seem to haven any problems.

In my last litter, there were 2 ticked puppies and 6 solid liver. The ticked boy was born with dark pads and at 18 months old is a dark ticked or liver roan (like your Tundra). The ticked girl had pink pads from day 1 and ended up being bright ticked ( sort of like your Moose). Gail
