OR, there are some sables who are sooo dark when they grow up, you can 
hardly tell from a distance if they are a rich sable, or a fabulous black & 
red.

Sable is the dominant gene over all colors (except the white masking gene, 
which is not a color gene, but a gene that masks the phenotype or true color 
of the dog, which I recently learned!) If a dog carries the sable gene, it 
IS a sable. It may carry black and tan or black as well, but sable is the 
dominant gene, therefore is the Phenotype of the dog. You can not get sables 
unless at least one of the parents is a sable. (unless one of them is a 
white that carries the sable gene)There are some sables that have black and 
tan markings and when they grow up somtimes it is hard to tell if they are a 
poorly pigmented/washed out black and tan or a sable, and I have seen dogs 
that are registered incorrectly as a black and tan when they should be a 
sable.

There are a lot of very smart people on this list. I would like to know
about the sable coloration.
I was wondering when you have a sable pup do both parents need to carry
sable or just one parent? this being both parents are not sable.
