CODE: C128
DNA TEST:
Presence of black and brown colors, and black or brown nose.
BREED STANDARDS FOR COAT AND NOSE COLORS:
All Large Munsterlanders are black and white. Some are ticked/roan and others are plated, but solid black is not
allowed. Because the breed originated from the German Longhair, there are still a few dogs that carry brown. Brown and
white dogs cannot be bred. Therefore, this DNA test allows breeders to detect brown carriers.
Large Munsterlanders should not carry the "e" allele, but in very rare cases this allele may be present and will be
reported if detected.
