Oh. You were thinking this case as a test of whether blanket-back was a pattern itself?
I don't think it is. I think it is always saddle with black recessive [or bicolor recessive].

I agree with that blackthorn. With genetics testing, they do test with the same agouti gene as a saddle. However, I also wonder if the masking gene has influence with it.

If I breed my solid black female to a saddle black/red, what do you think the chances are of getting blankets and saddles or will I get bi-blacks?

most likely all puppies will be blanket-back black/reds and black/tans - most likely no bicolors.

I would call this dog a bi-color. This dog will remain mostly black and has more black than a blanket back or saddle back = bi-color. My opinion and how I would apply for AKC registration if I were filling in the info on the application.

Lots of people call dark black/tans bicolor. doesn't mean it is correct.

i bred a black male to a sable biych. i got 5 bi-color and 3 sable.

so the sable carried bicolor recessive if the puppies are true bicolor- or black/tan recessive if the puppies are not true bicolor - either way, nothing unusual there. sables can carry either bicolor or black/tan recessive. No solid black puppies, because the sable didn't carry black.
