Hi there, just wondering if anyone can help me. My mum is trying to buy a ruby. We have come across one whose sire is probably the most responsible breeders in our country and are well respected international judges etc...My question is why have they bred a tricolour with a ruby? The ruby pup has some white markings on its chest and a small one on its head. The breeder assures us that these will disappear however, we have spoken with other cav breeders who are doubtful that these marks will disappear especially the one on its head. I just don't understand why they bred a tricolour with a ruby when they have many other black and tan sires that they could have used hence avoiding the white mismarkings. My mum may be interested in getting started in showing so we're just not sure what to do. It just seems to be so difficult to source rubies. I would really appreciate if anyone might have any insight into why the breeder may have chosen to breed a tricolour with a ruby? Many thanks
