Liver (Dogs) Color 544 - #B86D29
Liver may also refer to a group of certain types of dark brown color in dogs
and horses. In dogs, it is a mildly yellowish, light brown shade, however not
containing as much yellow as Ochre or Bronze.
The term is most commonly used in reference to Shih Tzus and members of the pit
bull breed group, but may refer to the color in any breed of dog. The alleles
are stylized as "Bb" and "Dd", and the liver gene occurs in recessive "b".
Therefore, a dog must have the genotype "bb" to achieve the Liver
phenotype.
