Nala × Loki
This is a pairing we’ve taken a lot of time to plan.
Both Nala and Loki are DNA tested, vet checked and hips and shoulder scored.
While this pairing does offer the potential for a beautiful range of colours and patterns, that has never been the starting point—those details come after the foundations are in place.
Merle, for example, isn’t a colour but a gene that creates a marbled pattern in the coat and can also influence eye colour. It’s something that requires understanding and responsible pairing.
This part is a little more technical, but an important piece—this pairing has been selected so that all puppies will be Ee at the E locus, allowing coat patterns such as merle to be visible rather than hidden.
With a confirmed non-merle to merle combination, we can confidently avoid any risk of double merle, ensuring this pairing is both safe and thoughtfully planned.
Visually, we’re expecting a mix of chocolate and black bases, with the potential for phantom and merle combinations throughout the litter.
Every litter is unique, but this pairing gives us the potential for something really special 🤍
