In the morning you see the bluebell wood, a mass of beautiful blue, under the dapple green of the beech trees.
The tendency to dapple may also be, to some extent, genetic.
The silver or silver dapple gene acts only on black hair.
This coloration is the result of the relatively rare silver dapple gene acting on a black base coat.
If a dachshund has one single spot of dapple, it is a dapple.
Horses that express the silver dapple gene (and do not have the gray gene) are born that color and it will not lighten.
Dappling on the body is desirable.
They can also have eyes of two different colors; however, this is only found in dapple and double dapple dachshunds.
