The white coat is not that common. There are 2 unrelated white couples in Europa, 1 couple in the Netherlands and 1 couple in England. There are a few white raccoon dogs in the wild, butt the fur trade made them more common. Butt for example, if you breed 2 whites, you will get about 50% white animals. If you breed white x regular you will get about 10% white animals. Butt since there are only 4 different bloodlines for white rac. dogs, most people who seriously breed these, do not use the white animals. My white is offspring from the unrelated white couple in the Netherlands. The male also. He is castrated since they are related to each other and we don't have breeding plans for these animals.

Hope you know what I mean, writing English is still a little difficult. I can read it without problems, butt writing it is something else...


Greetings, Tom
