I think they're chocolate dapples because they look just like Claire, She's not a breeder, she said her friend had the father and mother and said they were too hyper and out of control for her so this lady with the puppies decided to take the 2 adults and the mother was already pregnant when she got her. I saw both parents, they were at the vet too both doxies are very beautiful dogs and they have excellant personalities. The mom's name is Mocha and the dads is Bart.
