Good response !!! This is what is killing this breed !!! people think they have great dogs, maybe they do have great dogs, but that does not mean they should breed !!! This just kills me.

A DS can have a fawn color though, there is a bit of controversy on that. My trainer had a fawn DS. They can be registered as either.

Tell us about yourself: This is my first Dutchie. I’ve trained field trial labs and a Malinois in IPO. Lost my Mal to cancer at age 11 and wasn’t really looking for a pup yet.
I got a call from my old training director letting me know he had just the pup for me: A Dutchie...
It just sort of happened and now I have a brindle Fur Missile living with me. His name is Jaguar; Jag for short.

Correct. I believe it goes back to when they introduced Malinois and GSDs to the lines in an attempt to bring the breed back.

Even the AKC recognizes three colors for Dutch Shepherds.

Color codes below:

Gold brindle: 485

Silver brindle: 303

Yellow: 232
