As some of you might know, my baby will be coming home at the end of April. I just don't know *who* will be coming home yet. We have the choice between 2 males. We met them at 3 weeks old and we go again on April 1 when they will be 6 weeks old and my decision will will be made then. One is a piebald and one is a brindle fawn. Here are pictures that the breeder sent me yesterday (4 weeks old now) and I am including pictures of them at 3 weeks so you can see their bodies. If I were to go on color alone, my heart wants the piebald because I love the red and white and he looks like he is wearing pants lol. The fawn brindle has the cutest face ever. So I am torn and will thus be making my decision at the next meeting so we can see their personalities. I am hoping that I will bond more with one than the other and it will make the decision easier.

Fawn Brindle without question...

Ears have more shape...less flop.
Nose has no pink.
Head is a little flatter.
and mostly because he has the ultra rare well-placed(the most perfectly centered I've ever seen) "love button" on top of his head.

I posted the pictures on Facebook last night and everyone loves the fawn brindle. [MENTION=9218]Oscar[/MENTION]meyer, won't the piebald's nose eventually turn all black?

I do love the fawn brindle's face...it is so sweet. I do think personality will play a big part as I have a soon to be 4 year old male Frenchie so I want the best personality for him as well.

I am counting down the days until I can see them on April 1. I have already started to buy things for him.

Yes, it should...but on rare occasions they do not. While it's pink care should be given to limit exposure to the sun. It can sunburn.
Both puppies are very cute and I think your decision should be based on personality before appearance. But given what I see in the pics, and assuming their personalities are similar, my choice would be an easy one.
Have fun choosing...it may be a tough one to make, and not take both. :)

I'm hoping one of them will pick me on April 1 and I won't have to make the final decision. Otherwise, they are both coming home lol.

HAHAHA...I agree with Jessica, never ask us!

Red & white are my favs too but am a sucker for an adorable face.

Personality & the one that picks you wins over all considerations tho.

Good luck & safe journey :)
