About the Silver Dragoon
Silver is the dilute form of blue, replacing the leaden blue-grey with a soft pale dove-grey body carried over the blue-bar pattern. In Dragoons silvers have been bred to good exhibition quality in recent years, though as a dilute they are less common than the wild-type blue. The colour shows the breed's smart head and neat beak wattle to good effect.
