What Is a Charcoal Lab?

Charcoal Labradors are black Labradors shaded with the dilute gene. The gene that controls coat color is the ‘D’ gene. To get a dilute version, the gene is recessive (d). A puppy won’t have a dilute coat unless it inherits the recessive d gene from two parents.  When a black puppy gets a copy of the small d allele from mom and one from dad, then the pup will have two copies thus making it a full dilute and also a charcoal Labrador.
