	Identifying Coat Colors
		The base color descriptor is not significant from a genetic identification viewpoint and is not necessary as an AKC coat color identifier.
		Points are where separate coloration (either red\yellow or brindle) is observed in most or all of the following areas on the dog: cheeks, chest, eyebrows, inside ears, fore feet, rear feet, stifle and the underside base of tail.
		The red based point colors are often associated with red or brown undercoats throughout the body.

		Undercoat may be lighter than is seen in the jet fl coat while some buff-colored hairs may be found in the lower stifle and in the vicinity of the ears.
		Always accompanied by fl points; this color gives the dog a reddish cast and is not to be confused with wolf gray.
		This coat color results from either an extreme piebald factor or an extreme dilution factor and may, as a result, be accompanied by either fl or liver points.

	Colors of the Siberian Husky - Color Genetics ©ISHC
		Shadings are common among banded coats with a deeper color found on the back, down the shoulders, on the head and in the center of the tail.
		This is the most common of grey coloring and results from a mixture of heterozygous genes which allows red or yellow tone but not in their fullest depth; the chinchilla factor tends to reduce the richness of color but can not completely restrict it.
		This coloring is due to the lack of melanin present and freckles often appear on the muzzle with buff saddles and ears.

	Coat Color
		A scheme of coat color classification based on recognition of the effects of the alleles of seven genes provides the necessary rigor, and with training can be uniformly applied by anyone to define most of the common colors encountered in horses.
		Everyone is familiar with the process of progressive silvering of human hair color in which the hair color of youth, such as blond, brunette or redhead, turns to gray or white with age.
		Thus it is not possible to determine by examination of coat color which alleles of the A gene a chestnut horse has.

	Coat Color Genetics
		For homozygous recessive colors, both alleles are written in the notation for color assignment, since a horse showing a color or pattern produced by recessives is by definition homozygous for the recessive alleles.
		In addition to the coat colors and patterns already discussed, the presence of other distinctive features should be noted for any horse identified, even though their genetics has not been adequately defined.

	Horse Colors
		The points of a horse are the ears, muzzle and lower legs of the horse’s body.
		The points are often used as a determining factor in color and the horse’s genetics control what color the horse will grow up to be.
		The points of the horse are the same mixture as the rest of the body.

	Points (coat color) - Art History Online Reference and Guide
		Point coloration, often mistakenly called ' Siamese coloring' this pattern is seen not only in Siameses, but also in many other cat breeds, and in mixed breed or moggy cats.
		The point pattern is expressed by limiting pigment to the coldest areas of the body, namely the face, ears, tail and legs.
		The point gene is recessive to the tabby gene.

	Sheltie coat color genetics [Athro, Limited]
		Thus the coat colors and markings of the Sheltie and the Collie are similar.
		Here we describe what is known about Sheltie coat color genes, and present an interactive coat color calculator that lets you choose the parent's coat colors and see what colors of offspring you could get.
		This is the principal coat color gene in the Sheltie, producing sable or fl coats.

		COLOR: for cats with special markings: 5 points for coat color and 10 points for markings.
		Eye color: gold or copper with the exception of shaded silver which is to have green or blue-green eyes only.
		Penalize: solid spine color line, brindling, markings not distinct and separate or spotting not in evidence on both sides of the cat.

	B/b, E/e, and Beyond
		A simple example of dominant and recessive alleles, respectively, in Labrador coat color genetics are the "B" allele for expression of fl and the "b" allele for expression of chocolate.
		Though this white color may be distinct from the yellow coloration, it should still be grouped with the other yellow variations since its expression is also controlled by both the E and C loci.
		Therefore, in a fl Lab, although color is determined by alleles at the B locus, alleles at the A and E loci determine even distribution of the color over the entire surface of the coat.

	Coat Color Inheritance in Beagles
		It is the combination of these many genes which are responsible for not only his coat color but how long his ears are, how dark his eyes are and the shape and his entire conformation and quite often his health prospects.
		However, there may be more than one set of alleles governing some aspects of coat color such as degree of white, depth of brown coloration and the amount of fl.

	Coat Color Genetics
		The generally recognised color series (loci) in dogs are called A (agouti), B (brown), C (albino series), D (blue dilution) E (extension), G (graying), M (merle), R (roaning), S (white spotting) and T (ticking.) There may be more, unrecognised gene series, and in a given breed modifying factors may drastically affect the actual appearance.
		dogs without color on or near the ear have a higher probability of deafness than dogs with color on the ears, but this varies with breed and it is not known whether a separate allele of S might be involved.
		The color of the ticking seems to be the color the coat would be in that area if the white spotting genes were not present.

		But since she is not brown/silver-beige/cafe-au-lait and does not have brown points, we know that she can't be bb.
		Thus, depending upon the color genotype of the dog she is bred to, she can produce white/cream/apricot/red, the various shades of brown, and the various shades of fl.
		However, if a stud dog has not previously produced either or both of those colors, the only way to be certain he is not carrying a b and/or e is to have him DNA tested for these alleles.

		The brown color is not a genetic defect.
		The Australian Cattle Dog, the coloration that is called "Blue" by the ACD breeders/owners, is really the extreme piebald pattern that is also affected by the ticking gene; giving the coloration a blue appearance.
		If someone tells you that they have a litter of merled colored pups and there are no merles for many generations in their bloodlines --- then these merled pups were not sired by the sire the owner thinks there were.

	Coat Color Genetics
		All other colors are caused by modifying genes.
		This means that one Cr gene dilutes the color of the horse, while two Cr genes dilute it further.
		A grey horse turned white will still have the normal skin and eye color, unless there are other modifying genes, such as Champagne or double Cream dilutes.

		A Palomino is a crème gene diluted chestnut.
		Silver Dapple is a color expressed dominant "Z" gene which has an unique effect on various base coat colors visible on dark bodied horse usually fl to light chocolate with fl points, but not expressed (visible) on chestnuts, sorrel and palominos.
		Yellow Silver Dapples retain some fl or brown pigment in their points, including fl or brown legs; and are, therefore identifiable if one closely inspects the point color for unique veining/cob-webbing; and along with the presence of a silver/white mane and tail.

	Sheltie Coat Color Genetics [Athro, Limited]
		Sheltie Coat color is controlled by more than five genes, three of which are probably the most important.
		Let's pretend that two genes explain the inheritance of Sheltie coat color (this ignores several complications such as variability in the extent of dark fur shading in Pure for Sable and Trifactored Sable Shelties).
		Ignoring the extent of white in the coat, this calculator presents the standard hypothesis for the genetics of the most important coat colors in the Sheltie.

		Here are pictures of some common dun foal coat colors, and the final color they turn out to be.
		These foal coat colors are often confused with the dun factor dilution colors above, and produce surprises for people as the horses mature and shed out their foal coats.
		These colors demonstrate why it can be very difficult to predict a horse's final color from their foal coat color.

		Merle is a pattern with patches of intermingled colored and white hairs and other patches of solid color as is shown in the Australian Shepherd at the left.
		One of the homozygotes solid colored on the torso and the other is white or mostly white.
		The dog on the left is an interesting example of how this coat color pattern appeared to affect eye color since the right eye is blue and accompanied by a large white patch on that side of her face and her left eye is amber and accompanied by a merle patch.
