savvyPRchick Posted February 17 Share Posted February 17 I'm just itching to find out who our next pupper will be. It's looking like it'll be a brindle boy as the group mostly has them with one black boy. Since everything looks good on a black houndie, I'd love to see your BRINDLE photos with collars to see what I might like. My red fawn, Chase, was perfect in royal blue and my blue fawn, Lulu, was amazing in lilac. Red is currently what my Dobie girl wears. Quote Two furless kids, and Kota, the Doberman, cat littermates Kissy and Skully, and the chicken flock: Princess, Sunflower, Luna, Ember, Rose, Dolly, and Clementine. Missing Rainbow Bridgers: Chase (J's Fear Not), Lulu (former coyote hunting puppy), and Skah (the deaf Great Pyrenees). Waiting on our next foster-fail Greyhound.

LaFlaca Posted February 18 Share Posted February 18 Congrats on your new pup! I don’t have any pics of my red-brindle girl, Wendy, but she looked spectacular in black, red, gold, burgundy and just about any warm/autumn color.

VivaStPauli Posted February 18 Share Posted February 18 I've decided emerald green is the color for my light brindle girl! I think this silly video from her Instagram is the best full body + collar view: https://www.instagram.com/p/CLFYDsCAgUq/ (no idea how to embed pics here!) Quote Link to post Share on other sites
EllenEveBaz Posted February 18 Share Posted February 18 No pics, but brindle Milo wears orange, which looks terrific (warm color, like Wendy above) or black, and brindle Jeter wears teal by default. Teal doesn't do anything for his coloring but it was one of the few colors left in standard leash/collars (each of the hounds gets its unique, signature color). Dark brindle Nutmeg wore light purple, which looked surprisingly good. Quote Ellen, Milo, and Jeter remembering Eve, Baz, Scout, Romie, and Nutmeg Link to post Share on other sites
Potomacpupsmom Posted February 18 Share Posted February 18 (edited) Our first greyhound was a very light brindle and she looked great in bright colored collars- fuschia, purple, hot pink, even red/white/blue for Fourth of July.

rsieg Posted February 18 Share Posted February 18 Logan is closing in on 8 years with me, and has only had one collar, which I think goes well with his brindle. Here it is: Quote RobLogan - - Max (Aug. 4, 2004 - Jan. 11, 2018) Link to post Share on other sites
DocsDoctor Posted February 18 Share Posted February 18 I have had two handsome brindle boys; can't access photos at the moment. But Doc, as a red brindle, looked best I always felt in black with gold or silver, or red. Tiger is paler, described in his adoption papers as a silver brindle; again he is currently wearing a red and black house collar which also has a little blue in the pattern, to go with his plain denim martingale. I like bold patterns for brindle boys - avoid ones which will either disappear into, or clash with, the stripes. Quote Clare with Tiger (Snapper Gar, b. 18/05/2015), and remembering Ken (Boomtown Ken, 01/05/2011-21/02/2020) and Doc (Barefoot Doctor, 20/08/2001-15/04/2015)."It is also to be noted of every species, that the handsomest of each move best ... and beasts of the most elegant form, always excel in speed; of this, the horse and greyhound are beautiful examples."----Wiliam Hogarth, The Analysis of Beauty, 1753.

LBass Posted February 19 Share Posted February 19 (edited) Here's Spirit. He's at the vet's office so his focus is on that exam room door and he has deployed his huge ears to be on the alert. And at home in his current tag collar. I've loved this tag collar on Spirit because it acts almost like camouflage. I've had two brindles, Spirit who is a rather dark red and Piper, who was much lighter and more "blond" brindle. What I did with both of them was to try on a bunch of different collars at a Greyhound event and for both of them I found a couple of colors that, to me, just seemed to look particularly great on them. After that, I could happily and confidently buy collars in those favorite colors. I love Spirit in oranges and maroon. Piper looked gorgeous in olive or spring green and teal.

Mercsmom Posted February 19 Share Posted February 19 Mercury is a black brindle. With his name, I had hoped to put him in black & silver but black & gold are really his colors.

Remolacha Posted February 19 Share Posted February 19 My brindles have all looked best in warm autumn colors, red, orange, bronze, gold, plus black of course. Green looked good, but to my dismay my favorite colors, blue and purple, didn’t do much for any of them. I just saved those for the black hounds Quote Link to post Share on other sites
gracegirl Posted February 23 Share Posted February 23 (edited) Congrats on your new pupper. Which group are you going through? The only brindle I had was my girl, and I liked her in the more girly colors. Though she did look striking in teal, and a dark teal would look wonderful on a boy.
