I seem to remember a website that showed the inheritance of colour.........does anyone know what the address of that site is? I, too, have always been told that in order for a puppy to be sable, one parent must be sable...but if that's true, then why is it that sable to sable only brings sable puppies? Sounds like a pure recessive, no? And yet, I've heard that sable is dominant........I don't see how that can be true..........I really need to see that site.
