Looking at the dog from the side it looks like the black is where a horse saddle would go. The saddle would usually be called the 'traditional' markings. With 'traditional' coloring usually being referred to as black & tan.
Looking at the dog from the side it looks like the black is where it would be if one threw a black blanket over the dogs back- covers a larger area than the saddle.

We can not tell when the pups are young 'who' they will look like when they are older or how large they will be-tho most are relatively close in size. I can tell you which will be blankets and which will be saddles. Best for people to pick moms and dads where they like the majority of the dogs in 'growing up' pictures. The puppies usually do not look exactly like the moms or dads but sometimes they DO look like one or the other parent, or a combination of both or past relatives. 
'Temperaments can change too-  A more submissive pup can become dominant due to lack of proper leadership, a domiant pup will stay dominant though. Sandy' 
So remember to "Be Your Dogs Pack Leader!" says Ceasar Millan
Most of our dogs pages have pictures of them as youngsters too so you can notice how their color keeps changing, and structure, till they are about 3 years old. My dogs are not full grown until they are 3 1/2 years old. A good example would be looking at Eli, Sissy or Samson's page.
This is Nadia a puppy from my  Miss Pippi breeding.

I do not register my puppies with the UKC as the UKC will register a puppy from the AKC that was sold to a person with a (limited)  not for breeding registration! - (then click on 'Application for a Single Registration'  and (#3),  with breeders only recourse to refer to court of law with the individual.

The UKC will also register a dog without any  prior registration papers at all! - if one provides only a picture!, which there is no way of knowing if the dog is a purebred from just a picture!, or it could even be a picture of anyones dog- and a pedigree, which anyone can purchase on line to anyones dog! (same page)

This is why I have clearly written in my guarantee/contract that my puppies are NOT being sold for breeding and the penalties for violating those terms.

I do not see any way that the UKC provides support to breeders  to help breeders protect their pups- from going to irresponsible breeders, brokers, puppy mills, not providing support for responsible breeders concerns about pet overpopulation and the integrity of their lines - if that is the breeders choice. Are they not concerned about these things too? The AKC does offer this option and support to the breeder with the limited registrations and breeders who wish back it up in their contracts as well.

Registry's obviously make their money by registering dogs, puppies and litters.

I think anyone charging any money from dogs, whether making any profit or not, should have the dogs'  welfare as a first priority.

SOME GREAT SHOTS!
