Evening Moli, I've just been cleaning my horse's saddles and bridles  Earlier, I went to meet a black lab I am interested in using for Maddie. She is due in season at the end of the month - fingers crossed. He was lovely, a real good stamp with a nice big head and chunky bone. His pedigree is very good too and he is doing very well in the show ring - so I think I have made my mind up now...Maddie now officially has a boyfriend  |

If he is black and maddie is chocolate, does that mean the pups will be chocolate and black? |

Yes Moli because he carries a chocolate gene, if he didn't there would be no chocolate pups. There's a small chance there could be a yellow, we are really hoping not as it is not desirable to breed yellow from chocolate. He carries yellow as well. We don't think Maddie carries yellow but if she does there could be a yellow pup. If she does throw a yellow we will then know she carries yellow and breeding from her in the future will be much harder finding a mate who doesn't carry yellow  |

So if you mate maddie to another chocolate there's a chanc the pups could be black and a possible yellow? |

No, choc x choc cannot produce black but yellow is possible if both dogs carry the yellow gene... |

So why will you use a black stud, if you want chocolate,(Sorry PK breeding is totally ailen to me)! |
|||||

It is complicated Moli. I wanted to keep a black bitch out of this litter. I didn't want an all choc littter. Choc to choc matings can introduce a colour dilution, it is much better to mate choc to black. |

The ideal scenario would be choc x black carrying choc but not yellow but these dogs are like gold dust, very very few good dogs in the country |
