If I mix a white standard poodle that has black points who’s sire is silver and it’s dame is white and 3 grandparents are silver and 1 grandparent is white, breed it with another standard poodle that is white/cream with black points who’s sire is cream and it’s dame is cream. Unsure of grandparents history. What is the probability of offspring colours? Any chance of silver?

@james2333 Get DNA tests done to find out.

All pups will come out genetically ee red, so will range from white through apricot and red depending on intensity levels. With that particular pair you are unlikely to get apricot and red since both intensity levels will be low.

Regardless of colour - you need to ensure that your dog has had all of the relevant health tests. These should be stated on your countries kennel club website. This is to ensure healthy offspring so they don't end up with preventable genetic diseases. You can also use your dogs kennel club pedigree to search for a suitable mate to diversify his/her genetic material.

@james2333 Why do you want to breed a dog who’s grandparents history you aren’t certain of?

@james2333 Please don’t breed a dog you don’t have a full pedigree for. Your primary concern should be ensuring that both dam and sure have undergone and passed all tests for hereditary conditions. Coat genetics are fun to research but sincerely should never be a driving concern for responsible breeding.
