black and white

Did The Bar Sinister, which was written as a sequel to the BBC "Pride and Prejudice" rather than the book, name Darcy's harlequin Great Dane? This dog appears in the miniseries, not the book. A black and white harlequin Great Dane (are harlequins ever another color combination?) who rivals all other dogs in gorgeousness as Howie the Dog rivals them in adorability. I am still looking for its picture but this and that are similar.

I mentioned Just There horses before. I notice that right after Darcy trots through Meryton on his all-black horse, a villein paces through on a Just There horse with a white blaze and socks, I think to mark their contrast in quality.
