To me, it doesn't seem like she will end up fawn. Her body is kind of light-colored, but her head is a beautiful darkish red/brown. Is the fur on her coat likely to darken to match her head or is her head likely to lighten to match her body?
It doesn't make that much difference. I'd just use red and white.

If she's about 4 mos. old the color on her head and around her eyes will give you an idea of what her adult color will be. It changes there first and spreads down the back and out from there.

And as far as I know, once registered the AKC won't let you change it.
