This color almost certainly the gene [KB] dominant black. There is a potential path for the KB black gene through her pedigree, going back to a dog named Hassan el Bahrein, born in the UK to Saudi and Syrian parents. KB black would have come from his Saudi mother, since his father was a definite black and tan. <br /><br />The black gene goes forward to this day to European and American dogs. <br /><br />Hassan el Bahrein could be a regular tan point... but faint tan points are seen on some dogs carrying KB. A number of dogs with a faint tan point pattern have been tested to carry KB black, EG grizzle, and [at] tan point.<br /><br />In other words, there is a case to be made that [KB] black has been present in small numbers in Western salukis from the beginning<br /><br />Black can hide in cream/red dogs, and can be modified in dogs carrying other genes, so it can appear to skip generations and come out of nowhere.<br /><br />SHAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
