hi lute, I have ablack and white dilute sibe - she definitly is lighter than she was as a puppy, but the black can also turn reddish - it get sunburned! Star is outside all the time, so now her coat looks like she has red highlights - it's really rather pretty. I thoought she had red in her coat, but a husky breeder clued me in...
