His coat is a lovely fawn and white, his eyes are even lovelier green slightly brown color. Definitely not brown. We love him because his front end licks and his back end wags.

not unless his coat is green :-) Standards call for the nose and eyes to be self colored, meaning that they should be the same color as the coat color, with white coats permitting just about any color. Blue will be seen in some merles because the merle gene is actually a blue dilute. Some with black masking will show black nose/eyes. this is acceptable because the masking is considered part of the coat color. But bottom line, if the eyes and nose do not match any of the coat, then it is not to AKC standards. Of course, unless you plan to breed or show...who gives a crap what color they are ???lol. They are still adorable chis!!! Marsha
