    Color Class

    I was considering taking one of my minis to a color class at a local show, and I was wondering...what are the judges looking for exactly? Most "wow" factor? Do they look at conformation at all in the color class? Thanks in advance!

    Black Manes and Tails

    My black mini has a very black coat, but his mane and tail turn reddish in the sun, just on the outside layer. Hair dye was mentioned in a previous post. I'm assuming HUMAN hair dye? Is one type better than another? For humans, they recommend a "dark brown" color, even for black haired...
