 Galgo Español with light brindle coat - This article concerns animal colour. For the village in England, see Brindle, Lancashire.
Brindle is a coat coloring in animals, particularly dogs, cats, cattle, donkeys and horses. It is sometimes described as "tiger striped", although the brindle pattern is more subtle than that of a tiger's coat. The streaks of color are usually darker than the base coat, which is often tawny or grayish, although very dark markings can occur on a coat that's barely lighter.
