Colored Areas of the Salt & Pepper Miniature Schnauzer

In salt and pepper dogs, the salt and pepper mixture fades out to light gray or silver white in the eyebrows, whiskers, cheeks, under throat, inside ears, across chest, under tail, leg furnishings, and inside hind legs. It may or may not also fade out on the underbody. However, if so, the lighter underbody hair is not to rise higher on the sides of the body than the front elbows.

Color Pattern in the Salt & Pepper

The dark gray areas on this diagram must be colored any shade of Salt & Pepper from light to dark. If there is a white patch in any of this area, the dog must be disqualified. The medium gray areas are usually light to dark gray on most Salt & Pepper dogs, but may also be silver white.
