| Beautiful Puppy! I'd say Plush coat as well. It is difficult sometimes at this young age telling between long and plush coats, but I think he is a plush coat. |

| I'd Say Plush coat not LC I have had 4 pups look just like yours and they are normal plush coats and actually Rito and his brother are normal coat. This is a long coat pup out of a Uran v Wildsteigerland grand son and my Pepsii He is 10 weeks here..  Van Damme is long coat and is still a LC>Rito at 6 weeks: Just normal coat .jpg) Rito at 5 yrs old normal coat .jpg) YR |

| There is NO SUCH THING as a plush coat. This is a made up term and not an official coat type. There is a stock coat and long stock coat. Period. All that word does is confuse and mislead people as to what type of coat their dog has. Often LSCs will not have terribly long topcoats or dense undercoats and will strongly resemble a stock coat except for feathering around the ears, feather plume tail and very slightly longer top coats. Just like some stock coats show a longer, "showy" top coat but some have a very short top coat with a sparse or no undercoat (mole coat). Basically, in both coat types, there is variation of top coat length and undercoat density. Here is a LSC male from my current litter at 6 weeks of age:  Here is his stock coated sister:  The most notable difference when you put your hands on the pups is the coat texture. A LSC feels much softer and finer than a SC, and even on the puppy coat in a SC you can feel the slight wiry texture- in a LSC this does not exist. Also, at very young ages a LSC will have a sort of schnauzer-y look to their face, this is the way the hair is growing. I find at birth, when the pups are wet, LSC are extremely wavy. I have made guesses at birth last two litters and been right for four puppies. |

| if you read it BAZZA , it was about breeding her to a coat. which couldn't be done . now to have a COAT in a litter is great. they can be shown!!! i prefer them, some of them over a standard. sorry if others feels the same. i can ramble :))) Removed TOS violation. |

| Vonziu, I'm not a breeder or an expert, but I'm a big fan of the long stock coats and based on the hair on the ears, I'm gonna say LSC. Adorable pup no matter what. PLease let us know how this pup's coat turns out. I'm just curious. Char |
