I don't mind blue brindle, but it has to be a very dark shade. In Am Stafs, the pigment should APPEAR almost black and to be faulted to the extent it does NOT appear black. In Pit Bulls, there is no faulting on color, period (except for merle); therefore you will see very light, almost pinkish/purplish pigment and light eyes on many UKC dogs more often than AKC. And again, it is NOT a fault for Pits to be like that. I just don't like the washed out colors -- of any kind.

I personally don't care for the dilutes for breeding, as they are too common and have become popular at the expense of the richer, contrastier colors and pigment.
