Um...well, she'd look different in a better stack?
No, if the light were different....

Stack does not change color :) I am refering to the hairs are not banded on your dog. Think of it like the shading in a pencil sketch. The opaqueness does not change the initial strokes of the color banding. Some are sronger pigment than others but that does not mean it is not sable because the banding is still present and that is what makes it a sable.

GSD, of course, I was just trying to be funny. You know how in conformation photos where the dog has obvious faults, those who like the dog always try to blame the stack, and annoy the heck out of the rest of us who can see that the only thing that's going to change the dog's appearance enough to hide the fault is a good dose of photoshopping...
Anyway....
A question for those of you who have saddled sables: are the banded hairs present all over the body, or just in the saddle?

All Sable means is the color pattern of the Dogs hair, you will have different colors on one hair

When a sable is homozygous the variation in the shade degrees of the longer hairs is greater and the base color is lighter which gives an odd look of the coat just like someone who didn't comb his hair in the morning.
When you have a sable which is the product of a black tan and a sable, the more distinct the pattern and saddle it'll have, going on like this for few more generations it'll look more like a black tan rather than a sable, to evaluate the coat color look at the base color not the covering one. To evaluate the overall pigment look at gums, nails and mask.
No Ibrahim the above is what you did say. I didn't misunderstand at all. The shaded degrees of the longer hairs is greater and the base color of the coat is lighter which givesd an odd look of the coat like someone who didn't come his hair in the morning--NOT TRUE.
Please show me where this is true. Show me where he looks like his hair isn't combed in the morning?
