I'm not talking about the names for colors in breed standards, more like the one's you see owners, rescues and shelters using.

At my shelter we have a white JRT X with "butterscotch" markings and a "cinnamon" mystery mutt.

Fun fact: When Kobe was at the shelter, he was identified as a "Crystalline Colored Malamute/Husky mix."

I was like what.

Lol. Cream. White maybe. Crystalline is a bit of a stretch. Does he sparkle in the sun?

I dunno, I think I would have gone with "purest alabaster"...

The amount of adds I see for "caramel" and "lemon" BC's. I'm like RED! IT'S CALLED RED!
Oh I've seen those too...I've also seen it called Australian Red and honey-gold.

To be fair, in the states at least, bb (brown/liver) BCs are called red so I think they are trying to draw the distinction between bb and ee...

I once had someone tell me their dog was "pretzel" colored. I wrote "brown", for what it's worth ;)
