They have solid black heritage (BB)  and have pure saturation of colour cece (White, cream or pure white). They have no black pigment in a coat (ee). Puppies are born with pink nose, pads and grey claws but in few days it turns black. There is no tendency to turn grey (gg) or have ticking (tt). The eyes also turn dark brown colour this indicates that there are really amino acids (tyrosine) present which albinos do not have. The white miniature even get colour in the sun during the summer, which also indicates that he is not albino and has like many other animals which are white natural protection against the sun. But breeding has to be taken seriously to have good quality dogs in that colour just like for all the other colours.
