 |  |  |  | Are the tips white or just gray? I'm no expert and not a breeder but looking at your pictures, it appears that your poodle could be a blue, not a black. Blues are often born black and can take up to 4 years to fully make the transition to their true "blue" color. You can often tell because they have a lighter muzzle when shaved than a true black. The color "blue" really means a dark slate gray color and is very attractive. When in the midst of transitioning, they often will have a slight brownish cast to their black coat as opposed to a true black, who will not have that. So this would be my guess. I've seen other blues whose ear edges are the first to start changing into the grey or "blue" color. |  |  |  |  |
