4 whites?

[neighlass]

Hello again!

Just wondered (probably a quick answer neededbut it has been niggling at me ), Daisy seems to have 2 white socks, a white pasturn and a white stocking.

Does this still class as having 4 white legs and favoured in showing?

I havent looked into things that much (as you can probably tell) but I just wondered. Or is it a case of that it depends on what class you are entering them into?

Sorry if it is a daft question

I dont know the official answer but i would say yes. I know shires are often favoured to have 4 even whites but I don't think it matters hugely till you get in with the big boy/girl showing.
Some people chalk up the legs to make the markings even for showing but turning a white pastern into a stocking would take quite a lot of work lol.

You could always contact a show secretary or a breed standard agency to ask?

Hehe thank you for that!

I guess when I actually take the step towards showing I can ask the secretary etc.

Thank you for replying!

yep shires do need 4 whites if they dont then they can do show harness as the 4 whites dont matter
