reversed color blackmouths

A good many of our dogs are what I would consider Saddleback, but not reverse. The foundation dogs for this line were all yellow.

The most recent breeding my hunting partner produced showed the first "reverse" colored dogs, but this was also the first time two saddlebacks were bred together. Prior breedings have always been yellow X yellow, or yellow X saddleback. This pup below (born Feb. 20th), is the only pup out of the last litter that looks to be saddleback. She was dark like the others, but with time the hair on top of her head is lightening up. My litter born last May was a yellow X saddleback and all nine pups were solid yellow.
