Answer: There are many examples of recessive traits in non-human animals as well. In dogs, traits like yellow fur, white spots, and smooth hair are recessive. In cats, white fur, brown (as opposed to black) fur, and long hair are recessive traits. In sheep, black wool and blue eyes are recessive.

Also Dominant refers to the relationship between two versions of a gene. Individuals receive two versions of each gene, known as alleles, from each parent. If the alleles of a gene are different, one allele will be expressed; it is the dominant gene. The effect of the other allele, called recessive, is masked.
