The only reason I say she isn't a double cream dilute and there's no chance of it is her skin is gray. Yes, she has some pink, but under no circumstance will a double dilute have any trace of gray skin.

She might lose the black points as she gets older, too. I'd wait for color tests to come back before registering her, though I don't know that any registry would listen to what their actual color is.

She's a red dun. And the only black points she has are her tail. If that fades, we're ok with that. She won't lose her factor. I can garauntee that. Ace has yet to throw a solid baby. Always a variation of a dun.
 
We will color test. But I never thought she was much more than a red dun. And her eyes being grey, in horses, equals an amber eye. Which isn't uncommon at all.
 
Actually horse registries care very much about color. More than most animal registries. Certain associations refuse certain colors (Jockey Club, TWHBEA etc). AQHA isn't the best at keeping up on color. They only care about excessive white markings (which would warrant an APHA or pinto registration).
 
As for her skin, it's a black skin. No pink.

I'm more talking about the AQHA royally screwing up coat colors by disallowing certain coats even if that horse IS that color, and forcing them to call it something else, making other people believe that that's what that color is, no ifs ands or buts, like the Jockey Club refusing rabicano or the AQHA practically believing there's only red or blue roans and nothing else.

I get what you're saying. McDreamy (do you remember him? The stallion?) Is AQHA registered GOLDEN BUCKSKIN!?!?! Won't change it. But all that matters is IBHA.. that's the color breed registry for duns and buckskins. AQHA allows registration via email. So I think it's more they just have a lot of idiots playing guessing games.

Someone who takes Wendy Malick or Wayne Pacelle up on their infomercial request for "just $19 dollars a month" will pay HSUS $228 over the course of a year. Of that, just $1.03 will reach a pet shelter.
