In order to find the dominant coat colour (or dominant hair colour ) in dogs, we should first select pure-bred male and female dogs having black colour and pure-bred male and female dogs having brown colour. Then :
(i) crose the pure-pred black male dog with pure-bred brown female dog
(ii) also, cross the pure-bred brown male dog with pure-bred black female dog observe the coat colour (or hair colour) of progeny (or puppies ) produced.
(a) If, all the progeny (or puppies) are black in colour then black will be the dominant coat colour in dogs.
(b) If, however, all the progeny (or puppies ) are brown in colour then brown in colour, then brown will be the dominant coat colour in dogs.
