Hi, new here, and joined to ask a simple question about my pup's coat colour.

Nero's a Chihuahua/Poodle cross and I honestly can't pinpoint what colour he is. He has beige ears and line down his back, but the rest of him is cream. He looks identical to his mother the chihuahua, and I can't find anywhere that can tell me what I need to know.

Thanks in advanced.

Isn't that like a Dun horse?

Dun was the original color of horses, but most horses today are non-dun. A dun horse has a dark dorsal stripe down the middle of its back and tail and mane darker than the body coat. The face and legs are usually darker as well.

Yeah I have a Lineback Dun Quarter Horse mare, but his legs aren't dark. I think I figured out after what colour he is, though, after sitting on google for a few hours. I think he's a Sable Cream.

Here's an old picture of my mare from a few years back, and of course a picture of Nero to show what I mean.
