Patrtis come in 3 genetic types
Irish Parti-White collar, white chest, white legs. most the time
with blaze. This is the most common parti
Spotted Parti-This dog is over 60% white, with spots on the
back.
Piebald Parti- This dog has over 80% white. There are from
none to 3 spots on the body. Many times there is only a spot
over one eye. This is the rarest parti.
All parti must carry at least 2 of these genes. Irish is more
dominant over both spotted and piebald. Spotted is dominant
over piebald. Parti is recessive, both parents must carry the
gene to produce it. 2 partis bred together will always produce
parti.
They act on each other. If a dog has a gene for Irish parti, and
one for piebald parti, he may look like a spotted parti. Each
parent gives one gene to the puppy. If both parents look
spotted, but are genetically, 1-Irish, and 1-piebald, then each
parent could give 1-Irish, and the pup would end up with 2
genes for Irish parti, and be a Irish parti. This is how a parti can
be born that has less white than both his parents. An Irish
marked parti can carry the gene for both spotted, or piebald,
and could throw pups with more white than he or she has. This
is all very confusing,but this is where knowing the pedigree of
the the dogs comes in real handy. Partis come in every color,
from the lightest cream, to black. All partis are beautiful, with
little white or tons of white. We enjoy them all. Enjoy the
pictures.
SHE HAS A SPOT OVER EACH
EAR, AND 2 SMALL SPOTS ON
BODY. SHE IS A CLEAR WITH
NO SABLING
PARTI. HE HAS ONLY 2
SPOTS ON ENTIRE BODY,
BOTH ON HEAD. NOTICE
ONE EYE IS NOT
COVERED BY SPOT
SHE HAS 2 SPOTS ON HER RIGHT
SIDE, THE OTHER SIDE NO SPOTS.
A SPOT OVER BOTH EARS, AND A
SMALL SPOT ON TOP OF HEAD.
SHE IS MOST LIKELY A SPOTTED
PARTI, THAT ALSO CARRIES THE
PIEBALD PARTI. HER COLOR IS
ALMOST A BLEND OF THE TWO.
THE SABLING IS VERY LIGHT, BUT
LOOK AT THE TIPS OF HIS EARS,
THE SABLING CAN BE SEEN. ALSO
THE TAIL HAS LOTS OF SABLING
THIS LITTLE BOY,
LOVINGLY OWNED BY
JENNIFER TOY, HAS
EXTREME TICKING ON HIS
LEGS. HIS TICKING IS SO
HEAVY THE SPOTS
OVERLAP. IT GIVES HIS
LEGS A MULTI COLORED
LOOK THAT CAN BE
CONFUSED FOR OTHERS
COLORS.
HE CARRIES THE PIEBALD GENE SO HAS LOTS OF WHITE. HE
HAS A LARGE BLACK BELT AROUND HIS MIDDLE. ALSO
SOMETHING COMMON TO PARTIS, IS A GENE CALLED TICKING.
IF YOU LOOK CLOSE AT HIS FRONT FEET YOU WILL NOTICE
BLACK DOTS. DOGS WITH TICKING, ARE NOT BORN WITH
THESE DOTS, BUT START TO DEVELOPE THEM AT 6 TO 8
WEEKS TICKING CAN BE LIGHT, FROM JUST A FEW DOTS, TO
HEAVY, AND ALMOST FILL THE WHITE IN. IT CAN OCCOR
ANYWHERE ON THE BODY, BUT HEAD AND FEET ARE MOST
MOST COMMON AREAS. ON BLACK & TAN PARTIS, THE TICKING
IS BLACK ON THE BODY, AND TAN ON THE LEGS.

FACE. THE BLAZE CAN BE A
THIN LINE, TO VERY BROAD, IT
CAN CONNECT TO THE
COLLAR. IT CAN BE STRAIGHT

are recessive. both parents
need to carry the gene to
produce it.
A COLOR I HAVE NOT BEEN
ABLE TO PRODUCE YET.
NOTICE DIFFERENT AMOUNTS
OF WHITE. ONE PUP IS
MISMARK, ONE HAS NO BLAZE.
