Parti Poodle
A Parti Standard Poodle is not a mismarked poodle or a Standard Poodle that likes to party poodle, although I'm sure they would enjoy a good party! They are actually Poodles that are more than one color, such a black and white, brown and white, or the rarer, lemon and white.
A mismarked Poodle is usually recognized as being mostly all one solid color with just a little color somewhere else, which is usually white. In the Parti colored Poodle, the color distribution is preferably 60% white and 40% of another color.
If you shave the Poodle down, you can tell the difference between the two. The mismarked Poodle’s skin is all one color and the Parti’s skin is two colors like the coat.
As the multi colors were not wanted for show dogs in the past, they were often culled at birth and only the solid colors were kept for showing. This did not stop them from showing up in litters, since the siblings of the culled puppies could be carriers of the genes. Even though these dogs were not in favor, they were “historically” a correct Poodle color! There are many documented examples of them in historical paintings and books.
After many years of disdain, they are finally making a comeback! Most of the ones seen today are the black and white. They are now allowed to register with the United Kennel Club (UKC) and as of June 2004, are now allowed in Conformation. Solid colored Poodles and other multiple colors are judged in separate events, with a Best of Breed chosen from both categories. |
