At what age can someone tell if a puppy will be regular coat or coated?

As soon as 8 weeks. or even earlier depends on weather you have a good eye or not ;)

Pretty eary most of the time. Many will also have a very distinct face/head and eyes, almost monkey like. How old are they now? Would love to see pics! :-) Theresa

We can usually tell by 2 weeks of age......they just "look" different.....kinda "terrier looking in the face"...thats the easiest way for me to explain.
Take some clear close ups of their faces and post the pics.......we can help better that way.

2 weeks usually if you are experienced and have seen them before and familiar with the look...

Mahon and I got into a betting match on one litter of Dressa's pups...Many of my pups are very heavy fuzzy and lots of neck hair and heavy all over till 3 -4 months old but no tuffs in ear and no long nose faces....The one pup he had ended up not long coat but coated...I lost my bet and I usually can tell from very early...so even sometimes you do have to wait till 8 -10 weeks ...but not a long coat..you can tell them very soon.
