I had 2 in a litter about 35 years ago and two more about 20 yrs ago. I put gray and white on the papers and UKC registered them.

they can be registered because gray is a shade of black. This is what ukc said when someone else asked the same question before.

Black might be a shade of gray. I heard their were fifty shades of gray.

You may not want to, but you can register the dog "x" bred. If I am not mistaken the papers will still show the lineage. One of the reasons the program was created was for dogs not meeting bred standards such as color.

How old is it ? If its real young might wait till it gets older may change colors.

I'll just talk about black dogs because I love them and I'm not running them down. I hunt walkers and black dogs. Black dogs are behind as a breed and need to catch up. I know of three TOP reproducing black females in the last six months that were bred to walker studs. The breed needs these females badly. What dedicated and knowledgeable breeder of black dogs is going to take these pups train them and then spend years of selection and hunting and breeding x-bred to maybe ( if single registration is open for breed and they meet color requirements ) get them back to the black and tan breed .I'll bet not many. Very few cross bred dogs will make it back to the breed they split from.

The greyish hue is due to a dilution factor along with the black color gene. Many pups out grow it, or it doesn't appear as prevalent as they get older.

It is a common color in many different walker bloodlines today.
