Crossing a BB male with a Bb female:

The Punnett Square will look like this:

BB BB

Bb Bb

The percentage will be as follows:

- You will have 50% homozygous dominant (BB)

- You will have 50% heterozygous (Bb)

Now, for the phenotype, you will have 100% black fur, since B is dominant and is prevalent in 100% of all the breeds.

For the genotype, you have 50% BB and 50% Bb
