Terry says: "Of coarse it was a large litter and in the Pacific Northwest they 
are a hard sell because they aren't water proof. They all got good homes but it 
was work." 

I live in Oregon and my long coats were almost the first to go. I can a lot of 
times tell at birth also because their coats when wet are really wavy.

Channing says: "I would keep a coated bitch for breeding if she was stunning."

I myself too if I got a really nice longcoated female would keep her in my 
breeding program.

Once upon a time I had a litter by my Champion Jesse and bred him to the lovely 
Kazzie which I knew carried the long coat factor. I was thrilled when at 3 
weeks none of them looked like coats, they all looked the same. As it turned 
out I couldn't tell the coats from the normal coated ones because they were all 
coats :0) Of coarse it was a large litter and in the Pacific Northwest they are 
a hard sell because they aren't water proof. They all got good homes but it was 
work. 
Â
I can darn near pick them out at birth most of the time as they feel soapy. But 
by 3 weeks I m with you on the faces. Easy to see as their faces grow.
Â
Congrats on your normal coated litter

I was SOOOO thrilled yesterday when I realized that none of my Woodside’s 
Megabucks puppies were long-coated.  I can tell best at about 3 weeks of age; 
after that, they don’t look so coated sometimes.  I can look into a box of 
puppies all sitting there ever so cute looking up at me, and can immediately 
spot the coats !  They have that “schnauzer” muzzle.  I hopefully 
speculated that the mother didn’t carry for coat (a MVX CH Liberia daughter) 
– she’s had one litter before to a male that carried coat, and there were 
no long coats in that litter; plus I wouldn’t call her a “dry” bitch, but 
just not quite as plush-coated as others.  So . . . YEA !!!! – I have FIVE 
normal-coated puppy bitches to choose from, and the one male in the litter 
(poor kid) I am sure will be a keeper for a while.
How does everyone else spot the long-coats and at what age ?

Thanks for reading as I sit here in sunny (but not warm) West Virginia – 
people keep asking me did I move here from New Jersey because I thought it 
would be warmer ?  No – actually the weather here is very much like New 
Jersey, except for in the summer time when it is a bit “cooler” here, with 
no New Jersey pollution.  YEA !
