 Lemon and White (ABCDegmrsi/spt)
This color has the same formula as the Lemon dog with the exception of
carrying a different gene that produces varying amounts of white. If your
dog is Lemon and White 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.
This color is recessive in nature and will re-produce itself Only
when bred to a dog that is the same color or to one that carries the restrictive
color (e) gene provided all the other alleles remain the same. This (e)
gene restricts black pigment from forming and if it wasn't present in double
dose the dog would be a black dog. It is this (e) gene that reduces the
color of the dog to a red color and leaves no traces of black hair at all.
It is the same formula as a Clear Red/Mahogany dog but appears as a light
Lemon color rather than a red color. This is due to the modifying genes
that the dog carries. It is genetically called the orange, lemon and red
colors. The coat color is very clean and crisp appearing with very uniform
color throughout the dogs coat.
Note: In some breeds like the Pointer, the dog is labeled Yellow when
genetically it has the formula of a Chocolate dog with the addition of
the (e) gene. It appears Lemon in color but has a brown colored nose.
