SoTier Posted June 13, 2021 Share Posted June 13, 2021 There is no such thing as a "silver backed" Lab. It looks like a Weimaraner puppy (they come in tan and silvery gray commonly called "blue"), hence the name "Sky" I would assume. Many breed characteristics aren't well defined in young puppies, so you often go by color especially when the color is unique to only certain breeds. The vet identified my cattledog (Blue Heeler)/Aussie shepherd mix as an Aussie shepherd at 8 weeks old because of his blue merle coloring. As he grew, his cattledog characteristics emerged. His size, color, and hair are about the only Aussie Shepherd traits. Otherwise he looks and acts like a large cattledog. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Draconator Posted June 13, 2021 Share Posted June 13, 2021 We all know that WYRK is a sanctuary of impeccable and correct journalism. Remember how they proudly proclaimed McDermott was coach of the year? This just continues their legacy. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sky is most def not a whinereiner. The name Sky is a nod to Allen’s college days in Big Sky Country. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The name Sky is a nod to Allen’s college days in Big Sky Country. Silver labs aren't considered legitimate Labrador Retrievers. They can be registered and compete in AKC events like obedience or field trials but they can't be shown in the breeding conformation classes. They were only allowed to be registered as chocolate labs because the earliest dogs with this color were presented for registration with the AKC before the advent of DNA parentage testing, so there was no proof that the dogs weren't purebred. See the statement from the Labrador Retriever Club here: Silver Labs. Josh Allen went to Wyoming not Montana. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
