Chula Posted October 18, 2013 Report Share Posted October 18, 2013 Chula is getting sooooo white! She has almost lost her skunk stripe as the black lines are getting thinner. I wonder if it's just a winter thing? She hasn't had a coat blow yet. It isn't just getting greyish, the fur on her sides and the sides of her head are turning actual white, and her white tail tip is getting larger too.

valkyries Posted October 18, 2013 Report Share Posted October 18, 2013 my Odin changed so much whilst growing, he was grey as a pup now black guess you'll just have to wait and see xx Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mydiamond Posted October 18, 2013 Report Share Posted October 18, 2013 I can only say "wait and see" at this point but she's pretty either way Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jay Posted October 18, 2013 Report Share Posted October 18, 2013 She's beautiful either way I agree :wub: And I love the skunk stripe It will probably darken after the coat blow, at least that is what happened to Kodiak. It's all the white fluffy undercoat that comes out, so maybe Chula is getting ready to blow her coat? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chula Posted October 18, 2013 Author Report Share Posted October 18, 2013 Maybe she is getting ready to blow. I did brush her this morning and got some undercoat, but it wasn't clumpy or anything. She's actually been very low shed for the last couple of weeks. Calm before the storm?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mydiamond Posted October 18, 2013 Report Share Posted October 18, 2013 what's the weather like? if it's hot or at least hotter than average, yes. Calm before the storm Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jay Posted October 18, 2013 Report Share Posted October 18, 2013 It could be...sometimes they will blow coat twice a year, spring and fall. I was lucky with Nikko that he never really blew his coat at all, although he sheds ALL year round LOL. If she is, you will notice a lot of tufts coming out around her butt. That is where it usually starts Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
valkyries Posted October 18, 2013 Report Share Posted October 18, 2013 or you could get one like my Thor he blows all year round lol never ending Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chula Posted October 18, 2013 Author Report Share Posted October 18, 2013 It's actually just finally cooling off. No tufts yet. I've heard that spaying them can actually result in less coat blowing and more all year shedding. She's pretty furry but it's not unmanageable at this point.

Leyka has constantly been blowing her coat since she was spayed she was black and white as a pup and now just has a grey saddle back. Diva was cream coloured with just face markings and is now wolf grey lol xx Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
