I have a male named Mervyns and am looking for an all white female, so the
question would be who carries the
color dominance the male or the female ?
or is it shared?

Those are both dominant colors, in theory you will get 50/50 white or gray. It depends on the white line though I've seen some that throw as little as 10% and some that throw 80% whites over 20-30 babies. Ask the breeder about the history and also the genetics, most are happy to teach new people.
