Rhondacline kindly posted this explanation for how to breed for Red Sables in our breed - so I thought I would post it in our breed forum so we have it for future reference  "You can go to Black or Blue or Grey actually. Red, Black, Blue & Gray are all "AA" Black is BB/Bb DD/Dd Blue is BB/Bb dd and red is bb DD/Dd/dd What makes Grey is the 'C' locus - Black and Blue are CC or Cc - where grey is cc. Red (bb) 'hides' the c locus - so bb CC, bb Cc and bb cc are all red. BUT it's going to take two breedings to get your red. (UNLESS some of your current SOP dogs are hiding a 'b') So, the only genes that we are concerned with are the 'AA' and the 'B' Take your two best reds and breed them to a Black, Blue or Grey. Your puppies will be AA Bb Depending on how much room you have - you will keep 1 or 2 boys and 1 or 2 girls - they will probably be black/blue. Once those puppies are 30 days breed them together. This litter (AA Bb x AA Bb) will produce AA BB - Black/Blue/Grey AA Bb - Black/Blue/Grey AA bb - Red Keep your best Reds and repeat the process. The only color I would stay away from is the Yellow Sable. One 'ay' gene hides everything. " |
