Color dominance has nothing to do with which parent a given gene came from, just whether it is a dominant or recessive gene. If you want to get into the color genetics of French Bulldogs or Labrador Retrievers, my wife could give you an earful, but sheep? Not a clue... I don't know if any research has even been done into color genetics in sheep, or specifically BB/AB. One thing I have noticed, though, is white patches on a parent tend to get thrown to the offspring.
