Default Have you ever heard of this??

We just got a new puppy today. She's a yellow (practically white) lab and just as lovable and sweet as can be. The thing is her mother and father where both chocolates. This is the mommy dogs first litter, but her mother had one white pup in every litter she'd had too. I was just curious if any of you knew how this happened? Just curious!

I saw a TV show on Animal Planet about labs and a lab can be any of the three colors (black, chocolate, or yellow). It's in the genes from breeding and it's a crap shoot now when they breed what color the puppies will be.

Yeah it's just the roll of the dice. Genes are funny like that.
