Tricolored Dogs

Tricolored dogs look magnificent with a perfect blend of three colors on their body. The most common coloration seen in tricolored breeds is a combination of a black body with markings of tan and white on the chest and paws. Some, like the Beagle, may have patches of liver or tan with black against a white base.

Though black is the most common third color in a tricolor coat, sometimes it may be replaced with gray or blue.
