What dog breeds have a gray undercoat under their top coat?

Posted on December 29th, 2009 by admin

My dog is part collie. She has the typical collie red top coat and she has a gray undercoat. I found this out when I had her shaved for the summer. I have never seen this before. What breeds have this gray undercoat?
Are there any others? Her gray is lighter than the liver color of a Weimaraner. Anyone have this with their dog when shaved?

Where did you get her from?? A breeder? A shelter? Pet store?
Does she look like a full-bred collie?
I haven’t researched yet, but it may be possible that this could just be her natural color of the undercoat.
Huskies for example can be black and white in color but the undercoat is usually white to gray.
Keeshonds are a breed that has a gray undercoat, black poms too! I’m sure there are others but I can’t think of them at the moment — when I remember I’ll post again.
