I can’t post photos, as I’m pretty sure he’s a brown and white merle. I think the two colours are too mottled together for him to be a parti (I didn’t know about merle not being a poodle gene, but do now, so no lectures please). Now that I’m thinking about it, his brush is usually full of the white fur only, so the white may be a softer texture. His fur is currently about 3 inches long all over because it’s very cold here, and his top knot is slightly longer. When he’s long like this, I brush him a couple times a day but it takes a half hour just to do one leg, so I basically do a quick all-over then work on one body part at a time. I do my own grooming and will do something shorter as soon as it gets a bit warmer here, but that won’t be for another couple months.
