 A Mustard Dog carries
the Gene Formula (ay-at/atBCDEGmrSt).This color is dominant in nature and
will re-produce itself when bred to a dog that is the same color or to
one that carries the Graying (G) gene provided the (A allele) remains the
same. The base color of the dog is tan or sable and is born dark in color.
As the pup matures he lightens to a mustard color.
If the (ay) tan gene is changed to an (A) black gene with the rest
of the alleles remaining the same the dog will be Kerry
Blue.
If the (ay) tan gene is changed to an (at) black and tan gene with
the rest of the alleles remaining the same the dog will be Pepper.
If the (ay) tan gene is changed to an (as) saddle back gene with the rest
of the alleles remaining the same the dog will be Yorkie
Blue. If this dog also has white on the coat it means that the (S)
gene would be replaced with one of these White producing gene patterns,
(si, or sp) in any combination. For more info see White
Chart.
