I have a female Black and Tan. She's only 9 weeks now, but we are thinking of breeding her in a few years when she's older. According to her pedigree her Sire was black and tan, and her dam was solid black from an all black and tan line. Meaning her dam had the two recessive genes. Does anyone know if there is a test to determine whether or not my pup carries the black recessive gene?

Yes - you can do both a DM and color gene test from the same swab - I use the lab Lisa cites.


There are plenty of threads here on responsible breeding.......it is a great place to learn about the breed from experienced people, as well as the downfalls of poor breeding....you have plenty of time to read before she is old enough to consider breeding.

Post photos!!!! People here LOVE puppy pics!!!
