Default My winter white? Pet store insisted she is a WW

I am just curious as to whether she is a pure bred WW, mainly WW hybrid or a hybrid of other configuration or even a WW at all.

These are the best I can do photo wise as she is just so fast running around

Any help is much appreciated

Her name is Pudding btw

Sorry photos are huge - they are lifted straight from facebook

She has the winter white headshape, and that's winter white colouring, and her ears even look winter white.. I think anyway!
However I don't know whether she'll be mostly pure or actually pure.

Aww Becki she is wonderful. She looks very much like a Winter White. Was she from a local independent store? I'm asking as the guy who supplies our little store breeds them. The owner told me the same breeder does a few stores in the area. Since you are Middlesbrough, maybe yours too?

She looks very much like a winterwhite, but I suppose you can't be sure without a proper pedigree.

I saw the post on trying to decide if yours is a hybrid or not but they all look the same to me tbh which is why I asked the experts

I dont ever intend on breeding so looking very much like a WW is enough for me It was just so I know whether to refer to her as a WW or a hybrid and as she seems to be a WW she will be known as a WW thanks
