stupid question - Page 1

I was looking at the ad for Bob the white stud dog and my mind started to wander like it always does ..lol
What would pups look like if a solid black was bred to a white?
I somehow invisioned spots or patchs like a painted horse.
or a shade of grey?
What do you think?

Any color. Some blacks, bi, blk/tan, or white pups, even blue or liver if the parents were carriers.

Black

pink

what is considered dominate, black over white?
Just curious, I have no breeding plans.

    I believe it would depend on what color "the white was masking" If the white dog did not carry the black gene, I don't think you'd get any black(solids).

     I could be wrong, in fact I should have probably looked it up before posting, but, I'll stick my neck out here, and go with what I think I have read.

Not a stupid question moons.  
Here is an example:  A white female from a White mom(white prents), and a sable dad(blkmom/sable dad).  First litter she was bred to a solid black from a blk/tan mom(gparentswhite and blk/red) black dad(gparents blk and blk/red), it resulted in 2 white pups, which picture perfect pigment, 2 blk sables, 1 solid black and 5 red sables. All pups excellent pigment.  Next litter bred to a Black sable male from a white dad/blacksable mom. All the litter was black sable, all awesome pigment.  So this white female was masking the sable gene as proven by these two breeding, this female, the sires used and the puppies, none are owned by me, but she has just produced her 3 litter again all sables and so she is masking the sable gene...... However, I have a 3yr old Silver sable female, she is sired by a white male(whiteparents), and a silver sable(white sire/blk/silver mom) female, she is from a litter of 10 all of which is silver sable.   She was bred last spring to a blk/rtan male(from both blk/tan parents) which resulted in 8 tan sables with awesome pigment, no pink pads or noses. She is currently 24 days pregnant with litter 2, the sire this time is a dark black/red bicolor(greysable sire/black/redbicolormom) I am expecting sables from this litter but in both parents line is black it is possible she carries it I know the sire does. So I could get black pups as well, i am as well hoping for blk/tans or reds which is possible.  She is an outstnding female, with her HGH, CD and UD, UDX title, Sire is HGH, CD, CDX, UD, UDX and TT, both hip certified as good, normal elbows, as well CERF and bloodtested for VW.  Both dogs owned and titled by me.  I can let you know what is produced from this litter.  If I get all sable then I know she can only produce sables as it is a very dominate, black is second dominate, white is only dominate if both parents are white. hope this helps, i can explain more later but heading to Bible study now.

 No such thing as a stupid question.

Crossing a dominate white with a dominate black would result in buckskin, palomino, or cremello.

Oh, wait- that is equine genetics...

guess there are dumb answers!
