You'll need to study the parents' genotype alongside their phenotype to see which colours are dominant or recessive.
Blue is normally a recessive trait, so it's rarer.
It goes further back than just the parents; it depends on your dog's whole lineage, as some genes are recessive and might only show up every two or three generations (just like with humans, actually).
...and you can’t really predict what the pups' future coats will be like; it's virtually impossible. Even breeders who are really clued up on genetics and selective breeding struggle with it... if they manage it at all!
Patience! =)
Some of the puppies will take after the mum and others will take after the dad!!! You won't get any tricolour puppies if that's what you're wondering!!!
But no blue browns or brown blues XD
