As they get a little older I will be able to see how the brindling emerges on the very dark puppies.  In the last litter there were some who looked almost black, there was so little of the gold undercoat showing.  The white on the chest of the pups is tiny, and might not even be visible as adults on most.  The only one that has a larger piece (and still not big enough to be called a chest plate) is Yellow. 

I can hardly wait for them to begin to open their eyes...to develop little personalities.  I should, however, count my blessings at the moment that Roya is doing most of the work.  Once our roles change, my job is full-time puppy caretaker and instructor.
