> Sable is dominant to BOTH black and tan and solid black. Black and tan
> is dominant to solid black. So--- black and tan is recessive to sable, and
> solid black is recessive to both sable, and black and tan.
> Since a pup carries TWO color genes, one from both parents, you can get
> the following combinations stated below---- ( these are the simple
> versions, but you can apply these rules to all )
>
> there are also two words you should know- homozygous, which means both
> genes in a dog from both parents are the same color ----and heterozygous,
> which means that the dog carries a different color gene from each parent.
> Example, black and tan & solid black, or sable& black and tan, or
> sable&black In these color combinations, the first color is the dominant
> one that you actually see on the dog.
> Conversely a solid black dog is what you would call a homozygous
> RECESSIVE. A sable can also be a homozygous DOMINANT for sable, both
> parents having given that dog a sable color gene.
>
> A sable parent which carries both genes for sable ( homozygous-meaning
> pure dominant) produces only sables when bred to sable, black and tans and
> solid blacks

> A sable parent which carries a gene for sable and a gene for black and

> A sable (heterozygous) parent which carries a gene for sable and a gene

> gene for black and tan and the gene for solid black get together! The

>
> A black and tan parent which carries both genes for black and tan (
> homozygous) produces ONLY black and tans when bred to a black and tan AND
> (recessive) solid blacks
>
> A black and tan (homozygous) parent bred to a black and tan (
> heterozygous) with one recessive gene for solid black, will also produce
> nothing but black and tans.
>
> Two black and tans ( heterozygous) EACH carrying a recessive for solid
> black will produce black and tans and solid blacks.
>
> Solid blacks ( homozygous -pure recessive for black) bred to another solid
> black will produce all solid blacks
>
> Solid blacks bred to heterozygous black and tans (which are carrying the
> black recessive) will produce black and tans and solid blacks
>
> Solid black bred to anyother color combination- sable or homozygous black
> and tan WILL NOT produce solid blacks.
