The distinctive coat color observed in a lilac Frenchie arises from precise gene combinations. Specifically, it is determined by the presence of two recessive dilution genes: “d” (for blue) and “b” (for chocolate). A French Bulldog displaying a lilac coat inherits two copies of the “d” gene (dd) and two copies of the “b” gene (bb). This particular combination effectively dilutes both the black and brown pigments in the coat. This gives rise to the beloved lilac shade. The allure of the lilac hue is undoubtedly a favorite among admirers of the breed. Understanding the genetic intricacies behind the lilac coat adds appreciation for French Bulldog’s diverse color palette.
