Fictional Genetics
A design can only express one gene out of a series (exception for the Ex, Ce, Be series).
Upper case letters usually indicates that the animal is affected and the pattern will be expressed on the coat.

Markings that has a tutorial linked are highlighted with a blue frame.
DISCLAIMER:
Any markings that are directly inspired by real life species are obviously not copyrighted by me and can be created by anyone, but the charts the markings are drawn on is copyrighted art and cannot be reposted or reused. Some of the names and alleles we developed, and the way the genes interact with others is unique to us.

Real Genetics
A list of all currently known realistic genes within dog genetics. Some alleles listed may not have been found yet and has been given a temporary allele that's commonly used.
Click on the letters to see an image depicting the gene.
All of these genes can be combined with the fictional ones but must follow the basic rules in genetics.
