Genotype is if it is dominant or recessive, and phenotype are the physical characteristics of the fur.

Genotype:

Since it has a capital letter, it is dominant, and since both letters are not the same case, it is heterozygous dominant.

Phenotype:

Since dominant traits mask recessive, it is brown fur.
