Thought it'd be fun (and, ok, maybe slightly odd) to see some fur close ups to illustrate the variety out there. Doesn't have to be Labradors. Here's Obi, getting the ball rolling for the Yellow Labrador brigade

Re: Fur fun Obi looks a darker yellow to megs. Will have to take close up photo. Look at the shine on Charlies coat, wonderful.
Re: Fur fun Obi reminds me of a beautiful wheat field rippling in the sunshine And Charlie just makes me want chocolate - YUM !!! They both look silky soft x
Re: Fur fun Here's Simba's contribution: image by psalmone1, on Flickr We've noticed that in the summer, his fur tends to bleach out a bit, you can see that here in that lighter patch. Does Charlie's fur do that too, Julie?

Does Charlie's fur do that too, Julie? [/quote] Not so far, even though last summer was very sunny. I've seen pictures of it on other dogs though and people ho show their dogs worry about it - I have seen some suncreen sprays online that claim to protec against it.
Re: Fur fun All gorgeous....I wouldn't have identified Charlie by his colour though just his shine ...he looks lighter in your pic Julie. Dexter is just in his crate at the mo.....AC problems this week now ??? I'll post when he comes out x

Re: Fur fun Dexter-hind leg and furry trousers! ;D image by dexterpops02, on Flickr I took a similar shot to you Debs...he's so similar in colouring to Maisie x
Re: Fur fun Loooove the colour variations on the yellows ;D got a rubbish picture on my phone will try again if the sun comes out with a proper camera!
Re: Fur fun Lovely pantaloons, Dexter! I think the challenge is to capture shine on a yellow. Angela has noted some time ago that they are actually shiny - and they really are! Just in a subtle way
