This test checks if the dog carries 0, 1 or 2 copies of the mutations typically responsible for the brown coat colour, which is also known in some breeds as liver, chocolate, sedge, and less frequently, red. There are three primary "b" mutations that are responsible for nearly every liver or chocolate dog. A notable exception is the French Bulldog where in addition to these three mutations, there is a fourth cause of chocolate that has yet to be identified. ">

Description The B locus is responsible for the presence of brown, chocolate, or liver coat colour. It is also responsible for nose colour. In breeds where the A locus does not come into play, any dog that has at least one B allele (and is not "ee"), will be black in the pigmented areas of the coat. If the dog has two copies of any of several b alleles will be brown. There are at least three such b alleles. Regardless of other loci, any dog with at least one B allele will have a black nose and pads, while those with any two b alleles will have a liver nose and pads.
